our_o life_n be_v employ_v only_o to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o virtue_n and_o divine_a power_n to_o the_o end_n we_o fall_v not_o into_o sin_n nor_o be_v pollute_v by_o the_o conversation_n of_o such_o

example_n to_o the_o end_n that_o if_o you_o take_v heed_n to_o the_o word_n and_o plain_a speech_n you_o can_v think_v that_o moses_n have_v take_v such_o pain_n to_o ordain_v his_o law_n because_o of_o rat_n weasel_n and_o such_o like_a thing_n for_o it_o be_v necessary_a you_o understand_v that_o he_o have_v very_o well_o and_o wise_o order_v all_o thing_n to_o the_o honesty_n of_o live_v have_v regard_n to_o purity_n and_o cleanliness_n and_o to_o the_o correction_n and_o amendment_n of_o manner_n and_o as_o for_o bird_n and_o fly_a fowl_n he_o have_v permit_v we_o to_o eat_v

there_o shine_v a_o vigour_n and_o vivacity_n of_o spirit_n from_o whence_o have_v proceed_v the_o invention_n of_o art_n almost_o innumerable_a wherefore_o not_o without_o cause_n moses_n command_v
