Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies O consider thy own merciful nature, and thy former manifold favours vouchsafed to me, and to other miserable sinners, and act like thyself. For they have been ever of old Thou hast been gracious to such as I am from the beginning of the world to this day, and to me in particular from my very infancy; yea, from all eternity thou hast had a good will to me, and therefore do not now desert me. Remember not So as to lay them to my charge; the sins of my youth The sins committed in my young and tender years; my youthful faults and follies. These God frequently punishes in riper years, (Job 13:26,) and therefore he now prays that God would not so deal with him. Nor my transgressions Nor any of my succeeding or other sins; for thy goodness' sake Being a sinner, I have nothing to plead for myself but thy free mercy and goodness, which I now implore.
