to_o my_o god_n have_v sin_n deserve_v better_o of_o i_o than_o god_n have_v oh_o far_o be_v it_o from_o i_o and_o certain_o this_o expostulation_n will_v take_v hold_n of_o all_o man_n that_o have_v

these_o mark_n of_o divine_a love_n and_o favour_n the_o remembrance_n of_o they_o will_v be_v of_o excellent_a use_n for_o the_o check_v we_o in_o our_o career_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o forward_v we_o in_o the_o course_n of_o piety_n for_o a_o man_n can_v scarce_o think_v of_o god_n goodness_n to_o he_o and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n play_v the_o villain_n and_o the_o rebel_n against_o he_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a god_n mercy_n will_v enkindle_v a_o love_n of_o god_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o if_o we_o love_v he_o we_o shall_v obey_v he_o and_o do_v and_o suffer_v any_o thing_n for_o his_o
