but_o though_o sometime_o paul_n do_v thus_o he_o acknowledge_v it_o be_v from_o a_o pharisaical_a spirit_n which_o we_o have_v all_o need_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o and_o judge_v not_o and_o you_o

there_o wonderful_o and_o comfortable_o preserve_v i_o have_v find_v this_o that_o we_o be_v too_o ready_a to_o despise_v or_o slight_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n when_o it_o appear_v in_o something_o beyond_o we_o or_o out_o of_o our_o reach_n but_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o this_o evil_a also_o this_o good_a spirit_n of_o god_n be_v that_o which_o will_v enable_v we_o to_o choose_v to_o
