it_o be_v well_o now_o under_o this_o search_a rod_n since_o it_o appear_v god_n be_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o our_o sea-affair_n that_o we_o will_v oblige_v ourselves_o as_o christian_n to_o seek_v and_o inquire_v after_o all_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o if_o possible_a both_o of_o sin_n the_o procure_a cause_n and_o man_n knavery_n foolery_n or_o negligence_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n
