and_o very_o difficult_a matter_n to_o reclaim_v people_n that_o have_v once_o wilful_o revolt_v from_o the_o truth_n every_o age_n have_v find_v it_o true_a by_o sad_a experience_n that_o it_o be_v much_o more_o easy_a to_o convert_v that_o person_n from_o the_o error_n of_o his_o way_n who_o have_v be_v breed_v up_o in_o ignorance_n from_o his_o youth_n than_o to_o reduce_v that_o man_n who_o have_v turn_v aside_o either_o to_o atheism_n or_o to_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n albeit_o he_o may_v have_v be_v instruct_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n from_o his_o childhood_n such_o a_o one_o sin_v against_o great_a light_n of_o conscience_n and_o so_o be_v infinite_o more_o criminal_a in_o shut_v his_o own_o eye_n than_o he_o who_o never_o have_v his_o eye_n open_a nor_o have_v a_o

seem_v to_o take_v the_o largest_n step_n towards_o it_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o renegado_n from_o the_o truth_n tell_v we_o heb_fw-mi 6._o 4_o 5_o 6._o that_o it_o be_v

word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o power_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v if_o they_o shall_v fall_v away_o to_o renew_v they_o again_o unto_o repentance_n for_o if_o any_o man_n quench_v the_o spirit_n it_o be_v he_o if_o any_o man_n tread_v under_o foot_n the_o son_n of_o god_n it_o be_v he_o if_o any_o man_n count_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o covenant_n a_o unholy_a thing_n it_o be_v he_o if_o any_o
