inficit_fw-la animam_fw-la interficit_fw-la for_o while_o he_o infect_v his_o ear_n he_o destroy_v his_o soul_n cast_v thereinto_o the_o seed_n of_o suspicion_n hatred_n 11._o and_o contempt_n as_o

which_o god_n do_v abhor_v 19_o for_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n which_o make_v a_o man_n so_o like_o the_o devil_n as_o this_o do_v for_o from_o slander_v and_o backbiting_a he_o have_v his_o name_n

for_o backbiting_a be_v so_o common_a a_o vice_n that_o it_o be_v natural_o in_o all_o man_n for_o unto_o all_o do_v the_o apostle_n apply_v those_o testimony_n 13._o they_o have_v all_o go_v out_o
