the_o former_a it_o be_v a_o express_a tempt_a of_o god_n if_o in_o the_o latter_a then_o be_v it_o a_o implicit_a and_o a_o interpretive_n as_o they_o term_v it_o tempt_v of_o he_o now_o to_o bring_v

acknowledge_v first_o their_o own_o insufficiency_n and_o impossibility_n of_o gain_v heaven_n without_o the_o light_n of_o his_o direction_n second_o the_o despair_n they_o have_v of_o ever_o cast_v out_o the_o cananitish_a affection_n within_o they_o unless_o he_o dain_v they_o his_o own_o grace_n to_o guide_v and_o assist_v they_o and_o last_o that_o so_o excellent_a a_o country_n can_v never_o
