man_n as_o if_o the_o devil_n be_v enter_v into_o a_o company_n of_o swine_n we_o have_v observe_v these_o and_o other_o sin_n that_o provoke_v god_n wrath_n and_o these_o and_o the_o like_a we_o

of_o god_n shall_v perish_v if_o thou_o refuse_v to_o let_v they_o go_v say_v tostatus_n upon_o this_o place_n the_o common_a way_n of_o man_n that_o be_v suppliant_n to_o other_o be_v to_o entreat_v

will_v not_o intimate_v so_o much_o for_o fear_v they_o shall_v be_v think_v to_o distrust_v the_o goodness_n of_o the_o giver_n and_o indeed_o if_o a_o man_n find_v himself_o disinherit_v though_o he_o have_v a_o prompt_a mind_n to_o satisfy_v the_o request_n he_o be_v ready_a to_o fall_v back_o again_o but_o if_o a_o man_n go_v so_o far_o as_o to_o manifest_v his_o distrust_n of_o the_o
