suffer_v and_o undergo_v all_o those_o hard_a and_o heavy_a censure_n which_o already_o be_v decree_v and_o determine_v against_o we_o know_v all_o people_n it_o be_v for_o christ_n sake_n and_o the_o

will_v believe_v and_o receive_v our_o testimony_n which_o will_v balance_v the_o suggestion_n of_o our_o enemy_n and_o we_o steadfast_o do_v believe_v the_o lord_n will_v be_v with_o we_o in_o the_o
