a_o young_a rebel_n thou_o have_v be_v to_o thy_o great_a and_o good_a god_n and_o yet_o he_o have_v forbear_v to_o strike_v thou_o as_o he_o just_o might_n this_o and_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o

for_o they_o that_o they_o may_v order_v and_o dispose_v themselves_o that_o the_o series_n and_o course_n of_o their_o life_n may_v be_v comfortable_a and_o happy_a to_o they_o which_o it_o can_v be_v if_o man_n begin_v with_o vice_n and_o licentiousness_n man_n life_n be_v a_o race_n now_o if_o a_o man_n be_v to_o run_v a_o race_n and_o shall_v set_v out_o with_o all_o the_o violence_n and_o
