potential_o infinite_a yet_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o take_v the_o best_a because_o we_o be_v sure_o the_o great_a be_v not_o too_o big_a and_o we_o be_v not_o sure_a that_o god_n will_v accept_v

of_o all_o our_o estate_n we_o must_v take_v for_o religion_n and_o repentance_n such_o portion_n as_o the_o whole_a estate_n can_v allow_v so_o much_o as_o will_v consecrate_v the_o rest_n so_o much_o as_o be_v fit_a to_o bring_v when_o we_o pray_v for_o a_o great_a pardon_n and_o deprecate_v a_o mighty_a anger_n and_o turn_v aside_o a_o intolerable_a fear_n and_o will_v purchase_v a_o
