in_o the_o world_n even_o great_a contention_n division_n and_o distraction_n and_o much_o change_n of_o government_n in_o these_o kingdom_n and_o the_o appear_a cause_n of_o these_o thing_n have_v

by_o plot_n and_o contrivance_n have_v seek_v how_o to_o extinguish_v one_o another_o from_o the_o earth_n that_o themselves_o may_v be_v exalt_v and_o thus_o from_o the_o desire_n that_o have_v war_v in_o man_n mind_n have_v war_n arise_v against_o the_o person_n of_o man_n and_o among_o they_o and_o this_o be_v the_o appear_a cause_n of_o the_o war_n and_o distraction_n that_o have_v be_v in_o these_o nation_n though_o the_o hide_a cause_n which_o have_v not_o so_o appear_v have_v be_v in_o god_n and_o because_o of_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n both_o high_a and_o low_a and_o because_o of_o their_o oppression_n and_o abomination_n which_o have_v be_v many_o and_o great_a in_o the_o world_n therefore_o have_v the_o god_n of_o heaven_n be_v provoke_v in_o just_a judgement_n towards_o

and_o out_o of_o the_o justness_n of_o god_n judgement_n because_o of_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n have_v these_o thing_n be_v and_o now_o these_o distraction_n and_o confusion_n and_o discord_n
