this_o world_n you_o will_v easy_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v free_a from_o the_o pain_n of_o the_o other_o world_n also_o heaven_n be_v not_o heaven_n if_o there_o can_v be_v any_o danger_n of_o

that_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o second_o death_n and_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n therein_o be_v very_o dreadful_a it_o will_v be_v a_o doctrine_n worthy_a of_o our_o acceptance_n that_o those_o

give_v i_o leave_v to_o add_v one_o observation_n more_o it_o be_v this_o that_o though_o the_o damn_a shall_v have_v a_o sight_n of_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o state_n of_o glory_n yet_o that_o
