which_o make_v we_o consider_v the_o honour_n of_o god_n more_o than_o our_o own_o concern_n by_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o we_o hate_v sin_n but_o by_o the_o first_o we_o hate_v principal_o

when_o one_o think_v of_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n without_o reflect_v on_o the_o offence_n of_o god_n which_o because_o it_o occurr_v not_o to_o his_o mind_n he_o do_v not_o think_v of_o but_o
