will_v not_o geve_v it_o free_a passage_n ¶_o of_o the_o second_o kind_n the_o second_o kind_n be_v moist_a and_o because_o it_o be_v very_o thin_a lightninge_n it_o burn_v not_o to_o ash_n but_o

that_o be_v stryken_v therewith_o as_o though_o they_o have_v be_v bite_a by_o a_o serpent_n the_o cause_n of_o this_o be_v that_o the_o matter_n of_o lighten_v be_v much_o infect_v with_o brimstone_n
