be_v a_o stone_n not_o to_o be_v find_v upon_o a_o stone_n hence_o therefore_o learn_v we_o not_o to_o promise_v ourselves_o security_n if_o we_o be_v find_v in_o the_o way_n of_o sin_n whatsoever_o

among_o we_o we_o may_v read_v lead_v symptom_n of_o destruction_n &_o misery_n &_o therefore_o may_v be_v rouse_v up_o to_o ply_v the_o throne_n of_o grace_n that_o such_o sad_a cause_n may_v be_v

to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n they_o be_v not_o occasion_n only_o but_o lead_v cause_n to_o the_o undo_n of_o a_o people_n because_o such_o a_o spirit_n animate_v wicked_a spirit_n and_o make_v they_o bold_a to_o do_v perverse_o upon_o presumption_n of_o a_o pardon_n or_o to_o be_v pass_v by_o with_o some_o gentle_a reproof_n god_n charge_v shiloh_n destruction_n upon_o eli_n who_o be_v judge_n
