so_o you_o see_v in_o the_o example_n of_o jehoram_n the_o lord_n may_v take_v away_o those_o comfort_n from_o a_o man_n that_o the_o loss_n of_o they_o may_v drown_v all_o the_o pleasure_n of_o

time_n the_o special_a sin_n of_o man_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o and_o that_o both_o of_o god_n child_n and_o of_o the_o wicked_a the_o special_a sin_n of_o the_o godly_a as_o in_o david_n his_o sin_n into_o which_o he_o fall_v make_v the_o latter_a part_n of_o his_o life_n full_a of_o bitterness_n and_o have_v not_o he_o be_v able_a to_o comfort_v himself_o in_o god_n and_o to_o have_v

outward_a affliction_n do_v bring_v bitterness_n upon_o they_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o special_a sin_n of_o the_o wicked_a do_v sometime_o move_v the_o lord_n to_o turn_v their_o laughter_n
