The Sacrifices of God are a contrite Spirit: A contrite and a broken Heart, O God, thou wilt not dispise. Psal. 51.17

A Broken Heart (deare LORD) thy Grace respects,
as Loues best Sacrifice; the, breake my Heart
To make it sound thereby, in his Affects;
and Sinne (that wounds It still) from It to part.

How is it (Lord) that who so seekes thy Face
must with the whole-heart seke the same to see?
Yet Broken-hearts as soone doe get thy Grace;
so, whole or broken, are all One to Thee.

Then, breake my heart, to make it whole; that so
(being broken quite, and made whole afterward)
It, in thy Kingdome, still may currant goe,
made flat to take thy Print, with Pressures hard:
That, though the Fiend abuse thy Forme in mee,
It, through thy Test, may currant passe to Thee.
