if_o he_o have_v not_o that_o light_n which_o he_o have_v he_o may_v enjoy_v himself_o in_o his_o own_o way_n without_o that_o trouble_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n that_o now_o he_o feel_v he_o therefore_o oppose_v and_o seek_v to_o extinguish_v his_o light_n rather_o than_o to_o use_v any_o mean_n to_o maintain_v and_o cherish_v it_o but_o where_o there_o be_v a_o principle_n of_o faith_n that_o soul_n love_v that_o light_n it_o have_v and_o bless_v god_n for_o it_o account_v of_o it_o a_o great_a mercy_n and_o therefore_o seek_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o maintain_v and_o increase_v it_o and_o join_v side_n with_o it_o all_o he_o can_v three_o 3._o where_o there_o be_v only_o a_o natural_a conscience_n such_o a_o one_o be_v very_o hardly_o bring_v to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n he_o seek_v to_o put_v off_o the_o truth_n as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v convince_v by_o it_o there_o must_v be_v wonderful_a clear_a evidence_n that_o he_o can_v by_o no_o
