determine_v in_o our_o heart_n never_o to_o commit_v they_o again_o and_o have_v thus_o dispose_v &_o prepare_v ourselves_o let_v we_o confess_v they_o and_o albeit_o in_o confession_n we_o tell_v not_o all_o but_o the_o great_a and_o those_o which_o cause_n most_o shame_n yet_o let_v the_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n for_o have_v commit_v they_o and_o the_o purpose_n of_o not_o commit_v they_o
