against_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o spirit_n against_o the_o flesh_n he_o think_v it_o speak_v figurative_o because_o all_o that_o contention_n be_v of_o the_o mind_n against_o itself_o strive_v

against_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v his_o own_o word_n and_o these_o two_o be_v enemy_n so_o that_o a_o man_n can_v do_v what_o he_o will_v for_o the_o earthly_a mansion_n be_v a_o burden_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o stop_v the_o mind_n from_o do_v what_o it_o intend_v horse_n a_o simile_n from_o a_o restive_a horse_n and_o as_o a_o restive_a horse_n will_v not_o endure_v his_o rider_n and_o

and_o against_o his_o will_n be_v long_a on_o his_o way_n before_o he_o can_v come_v to_o his_o journey_n end_n so_o the_o soul_n oppress_v with_o the_o burden_n of_o the_o body_n go_v on_o very_o

torment_v at_o the_o very_a heart_n the_o torture_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v far_o more_o intolerable_a than_o the_o pain_n of_o the_o body_n which_o by_o a_o figure_n of_o interrogation_n that_o he_o

this_o prerogative_n for_o her_o honour_n and_o dignity_n body_n the_o soul_n do_v many_o thing_n without_o the_o body_n that_o she_o do_v many_o thing_n of_o herself_o but_o the_o body_n can_v do_v
