o my God be aye on my side , A now and all my life-time .

o Lord God , B be thou my good guid , and keepe me from all ill : and ayd me to doe that , that is thy will , and not mine . use with good men , and sure thou shall get good by them : flye from ill men , for be thou sure that ill shall fall on thee , if thou vse much with them , for the Lord doth loue the good , and hates the il .

be true in word and deed . C vse oft to pray . be of a good minde . the Lord is good to all them that fear him , and will not let them want .

Christ is that true vine , G which hath brought soules from sin , by his word , and hath bought them with his blood . o sweet Christ let me be a braunch in that vine tree .

Obseruations on the variable sound of some letters , as ( c ) for ( ks , ) ( ph ) for ( f , ) ( g for ( j , ) ( t for ( c s. ) ) )

( ph ) in the be-gin-ning , I midst , or end of a word , hath the sound of ( f ) and so is written for it , as in phisicke , Phi-lip , pro-phet , Ce-phas , triumph , a-saph , E-le-phant .

Note that ( c ) hath the sound of ( k ) and ( s . ) of ( k ) as in ca co cu , K as in call , cold , locke : of ( s ) as in ce , ci , as ( se si ) as in cer-taine , ci-tie , face .

( ps ) beareth the sound of ( s ) as in Psalme , L psal-ter , and some-times like ( z ) as in phrase .

( g ) hath the sound of the greeke letter gamma , M as ( God giueth grace ) or of the He-brew conso-nant jod , as in ge-ne-a-lo-gie , sage , bridge .

( t ) hath one sound proper to it , N as time , tri-eth , truth , or the sound of ( c ) or ( s ) as na-ti-on , esti-ma-ti-on .

So often as you find ( ti ) before ( on ) you are to sound it as ( ci ) as in con-di-ti-on , sal-ua-ti-on . O Except ( x s or h ) go in the midst of a word before , as in mix-ti-on , bu-sti-on fil-thi-est : and some times be-fore an or en , as in ga-la-ti-ans , pa-ti-ence .

Except a per-fect word en-ding in ( ti ) be ad-ded to a syl-lable be-gin-ning with a vo-well , P as if ing be added to migh-ti , or ( est ) to pit-ti , it is migh-ti-est , pit-ty-ing .
