you_o shall_v reform_v yourselves_o and_o cast_v those_o beam_n out_o of_o your_o own_o eye_n first_o before_o you_o attempt_v to_o cast_v the_o mote_n out_o of_o your_o brother_n eye_n 3_o i_o now_o

our_o office_n whether_o he_o be_v a_o magistrate_n that_o be_v to_o punish_v offender_n or_o a_o minister_n that_o preach_v against_o sin_n or_o a_o private_a person_n that_o reprove_v for_o sin_n or_o give_v information_n to_o the_o magistrate_n against_o such_o a_o sin_n unless_o he_o be_v something_o clear_a in_o his_o own_o conscience_n he_o can_v discharge_v this_o dnty_n towards_o his_o brother_n but_o he_o sin_v against_o his_o office_n and_o that_o because_o the_o office_n of_o a_o reformer_n bind_v he_o to_o be_v holy_a and_o of_o a_o unblameable_a life_n what_o the_o apostle_n
