from_o my_o seed-spring_n i_o speak_v it_o if_o there_o be_v a_o devil_n without_o man_n as_o there_o be_v not_o that_o devil_n will_v tremble_v to_o behold_v thy_o carriage_n and_o hear_v thy_o

the_o pox_n of_o thy_o devil_n lust_n within_o thou_o as_o aforesaid_a i_o tell_v thou_o how_o thou_o will_v hazard_v not_o thy_o credit_n and_o estate_n but_o thy_o soul_n also_o for_o a_o

he_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o resurrection_n even_o glorify_v with_o his_o saviour_n so_o if_o you_o serious_o lie_v to_o heart_n the_o vast_a difference_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n upon_o their_o bed_n of_o sickness_n or_o hour_n of_o death_n it_o will_v cause_v admiration_n as_o thus_o the_o departure_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n out_o of_o this_o world_n

nothing_o comparable_a to_o what_o thou_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n next_o appearance_n again_o thou_o say_v the_o devil_n be_v a_o wicked_a curse_a blasphemer_n against_o god_n
