regardless_o and_o according_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o as_o holy_a david_n call_v it_o brutishness_n to_o think_v in_o any_o case_n that_o god_n do_v not_o know_v what_o we_o do_v understand_v o_o you_o brutish_a among_o the_o people_n he_o that_o form_v the_o eye_n shall_v not_o he_o see_v so_o he_o call_v it_o blasphemy_n to_o think_v that_o god_n do_v not_o regard_v what_o we_o do_v
