wicked_a sometime_o a_o perplex_a conscience_n full_a of_o horror_n and_o terror_n without_o any_o comfort_n as_o in_o judas_n when_o he_o have_v betray_v christ_n and_o sometime_o their_o conscience_n be_v quiet_a and_o trouble_v they_o not_o no_o not_o after_o they_o have_v commit_v most_o horrible_a and_o heinous_a sin_n as_o we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o saul_n do_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o repent_v he_o after_o he_o have_v cause_v the_o priest_n to_o be_v most_o cruel_o slay_v and_o these_o be_v the_o worst_a of_o all_o so_o there_o be_v in_o the_o righteous_a sometime_o a_o
