the_o other_o ay_o how_o think_v it_o enough_o to_o plead_v this_o that_o the_o best_a have_v their_o fault_n i_o beseech_v you_o let_v i_o reason_n it_o a_o little_a with_o you_o about_o this_o the_o best_a say_v you_o have_v their_o fault_n so_o say_v i_o too_o but_o the_o worst_a have_v some_o good_a in_o they_o material_o good_a why_o may_v not_o this_o be_v as_o good_a a_o reason_n as_o thou_o there_o be_v some_o that_o be_v save_v and_o yet_o commit_v sin_n as_o well_o as_o i_o so_o say_v i_o there_o be_v some_o in_o hell_n and_o yet_o have_v do_v as_o much_o good_a perhaps_o as_o ever_o thou_o why_o be_v not_o the_o reason_n of_o one_o side_n as_o good_a as_o the_o other_o thou_o tell_v i_o that_o thou_o sin_v sometime_o and_o so_o do_v david_n and_o peter_n i_o will_v tell_v thou_o of_o saul_n i_o will_v tell_v thou_o of_o ahab_n i_o will_v tell_v thou_o of_o herod_n thou_o think_v that_o david_n and_o peter_n commit_v as_o great_a sin_n as_o thou-why_a saul_n and_o ahab_n and_o herod_n and_o it_o may_v be_v judas_n have_v do_v as_o much_o good_a as_o ever_o thou_o and_o yet_o they_o in_o hell_n as_o saul_n that_o i_o speak_v before_o of_o he_o sin_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o

himself_o in_o sackcloth_n for_o his_o sin_n when_o have_v thou_o ever_o do_v so_o for_o thy_o sin_n and_o herod_n hear_v john_n baptist_n glad_o and_o reform_v many_o thing_n sure_o the_o argument_n will_v hold_v as_o well_o that_o such_o as_o be_v in_o hell_n have_v do_v as_o much_o good_a as_o i_o have_v as_o some_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n have_v commit_v as_o great_a sin_n as_o i_o have_v o_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o thou_o that_o other_o do_v sin_n they_o may_v be_v save_v and_o yet_o thou_o may_v eternal_o be_v destroy_v this_o will_v not_o be_v a_o plea_n to_o a_o man_n
