to_o glory_n the_o sure_a way_n to_o be_v secure_a from_o all_o other_o sin_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v keep_v a_o thief_n in_o his_o house_n and_o this_o man_n shall_v have_v his_o pocket_n pick_v

1._o what_o be_v that_o sin_n which_o a_o man_n may_v call_v his_o own_o sin_n answ_n i_o give_v you_o a_o hint_n of_o it_o in_o the_o explication_n that_o it_o be_v original_a sin_n the_o sin_n of_o

at_o all_o to_o it_o as_o for_o example_n the_o sin_n of_o swear_v be_v so_o natural_a to_o some_o man_n that_o they_o will_v swear_v though_o no_o man_n hurt_v they_o anger_v they_o or_o provoke_v
