without_o all_o doubt_n be_v banish_v wherefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o good_a advisement_n which_o david_n pray_v when_o he_o say_v 119.36_o incline_v my_o heart_n unto_o thy_o testimony_n and_o

there_o if_o a_o covetous_a man_n do_v sometime_o pretend_v some_o obedience_n towards_o god_n it_o be_v mere_a hypocrisy_n but_o contrariwise_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v servant_n in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o in_o his_o religion_n covetousness_n have_v no_o place_n there_o for_o what_o agreement_n have_v the_o idol_n of_o avarice_n with_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n furthermore_o because_o the_o most_o holy_a king_n david_n desire_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o his_o heart_n may_v be_v incline_v to_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n and_o not_o unto_o covetousness_n covetousness_n he_o do_v
