your_o sin_n the_o which_o all_o must_v confess_v except_v some_o in_o atheism_n may_v say_v that_o the_o perfect_a grace_n and_o light_n of_o the_o alsufficient_a god_n be_v a_o insufficient_a

of_o your_o conscience_n which_o no_o one_o else_o can_v accuse_v you_o of_o but_o yet_o you_o be_v not_o then_o direct_v unto_o it_o as_o you_o be_v now_o counsel_v and_o therefore_o can_v not_o
