be_v easy_a to_o show_v because_o they_o command_v and_o require_v contrary_a thing_n of_o their_o servant_n therefore_o if_o thou_o obey_v the_o one_o by_z and_o by_o thou_o do_v ageyn_v the_o

they_o that_o will_v be_v scotfree_a do_v fall_v intoo_o temptation_n &_o the_o snare_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o into_o many_o unprofitable_a &_o hurtful_a desire_n which_o drown_v man_n in_o

in_o many_o sorrow_n here_o do_v paul_n cunning_o peint_a the_o nature_n of_o covetousness_n which_o fight_v full_a but_o ageinst_a godliness_n &_o y_o e_o service_n of_o god_n for_o they_o have_v

the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o all_o good_a it_o be_v no_o marvel_n therefore_o y_a t_o christ_n say_v no_o man_n can_v serve_v god_n &_o mammon_n for_o they_o fight_v one_o

therefore_o the_o lord_n say_v in_o express_a word_n no_o man_n can_v serve_v god_n and_o riches_n what_o be_v it_o to_o serve_v riches_n it_o be_v to_o set_v a_o man_n hart_n upon_o they_o as_o
