it_o be_v ready_a to_o make_v that_o a_o occasion_n of_o slothful_a carelessness_n which_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o spur_n to_o make_v we_o more_o careful_a therefore_o when_o the_o thing_n be_v do_v when_o the_o work_n be_v wrought_v and_o when_o all_o our_o purpose_n be_v bring_v to_o pass_v we_o must_v still_o be_v careful_a over_o our_o heart_n we_o must_v still_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o they_o that_o our_o corruption_n be_v in_o no_o wise_a hurtful_a to_o that_o good_a grace_n which_o god_n have_v give_v us._n thus_o whether_o we_o purpose_v to_o leave_v sin_n or_o we_o leave_v it_o indeed_o yet_o we_o may_v be_v deceive_v by_o our_o heart_n if_o they_o be_v not_o right_a in_o do_v of_o they_o therefore_o above_o all_o thing_n we_o must_v take_v heed_n unto_o our_o heart_n otherwise_o we_o may_v do_v many_o goodly_a &_o glorious_a thing_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n yet_o our_o heart_n will_v one_o day_n accuse_v we_o for_o they_o our_o conscience_n will_v check_v
