that_o have_v any_o taste_n of_o religion_n will_v defy_v such_o plague_n and_o separate_v themselves_o from_o they_o lest_o god_n wrap_v they_o up_o with_o they_o in_o the_o same_o condemnation_n

to_o offer_v he_o a_o pure_a and_o clean_a oblation_n yea_o and_o we_o see_v that_o david_n also_o do_v practice_v the_o same_o doctrine_n in_o his_o time_n 4.6_o psalm_n 4.6_o for_o whereas_o he_o
