day_n be_v vex_v exile_a whip_v imprison_a set_v upon_o the_o rack_n tie_v and_o chain_v to_o the_o stake_n and_o burn_v only_o for_o this_o because_o they_o preach_v true_o the_o gospel_n of_o

that_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n can_v alter_v the_o purpose_n of_o the_o lord_n where_o we_o learn_v that_o as_o god_n do_v suffer_v his_o elect_a for_o a_o time_n to_o be_v seduce_v and_o to_o

yet_o as_o many_o as_o pertain_v to_o god_n election_n have_v the_o time_n and_o mean_n of_o their_o conversion_n appoint_v and_o they_o at_o that_o call_n obey_v as_o we_o see_v here_o this_o

nor_o the_o vile_a calling_n which_o refuse_v not_o to_o think_v upon_o the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o their_o blindness_n but_o use_v love_a and_o fit_a mean_n to_o call_v

not_o long_o be_v forgetful_a neither_o remain_v any_o great_a time_n in_o the_o sink_n of_o his_o sin_n therefore_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o a_o simple_a man_n wrought_v a_o sorrow_n
