upon_o sinner_n and_o though_o it_o be_v a_o impiety_n hardly_o conceivable_a yet_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o be_v hater_n of_o god_n it_o be_v true_a god_n by_o the_o transcendent_a excellence_n of_o his_o nature_n be_v uncapable_a of_o suffer_v any_o evil_a and_o there_o be_v few_o in_o the_o present_a state_n arrive_v to_o such_o malice_n as_o to_o declare_v open_a enmity_n
