"Therefore lett us choose life that wee, and our seede may live, by obeyeing His voyce and cleavening to Him, for Hee is our life and our prosperity." - "A Model of Christian Charity" by Winthrop.
I'm not an expert at old english, but isn't it true that there was no "correct" spelling? The writer/author got to choose how he did it, and everyone's spelling was different? I thought the "Hee" was funny:)
