we_o shall_v a_o little_a bridle_n affection_n lest_o they_o carry_v we_o to_o impatience_n and_o discontentment_n at_o this_o work_n of_o god_n it_o be_v say_v of_o david_n 2._o sam._n 12._o that_o when_o god_n have_v strike_v the_o child_n which_o vriahs_n wife_n bear_v he_o with_o sickness_n he_o fast_v and_o pray_v and_o weep_v and_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v for_o thus_o he_o apprehend_v
