the_o unbeliever_n also_o can_v ascribe_v the_o fault_n to_o god_n but_o to_o themselves_o that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v for_o though_o all_o man_n be_v so_o corrupt_v by_o nature_n that_o they_o can_v of_o themselves_o believe_v in_o christ_n yet_o have_v not_o god_n so_o corrupt_v they_o but_o they_o have_v so_o corrupt_v themselves_o see_v that_o through_o the_o devil_n provocation_n they_o
