of_o gethsemane_n his_o soul_n feel_v great_a torture_n than_o his_o body_n on_o the_o cross_n there_o it_o be_v that_o he_o drink_v that_o bitter_a cup_n which_o set_v he_o in_o a_o agony_n and_o

why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o and_o sure_o if_o we_o consider_v these_o thing_n we_o must_v needs_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o death_n like_a unto_o he_o nor_o any_o sorrow_n like_a unto_o

since_o its_o entrance_n they_o have_v ever_o go_v hand_n in_o hand_n together_o to_o this_o purpose_n be_v that_o of_o st._n paul_n rom._n 5.12_o as_o by_o one_o man_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o

be_v sin_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o irregularity_n except_v i_o say_v to_o prevent_v this_o we_o must_v know_v that_o though_o the_o immaculate_a son_n of_o god_n have_v no_o sin_n of_o his_o own_o
