how_o be_v it_o strange_a see_v he_o be_v every_o where_o not_o only_o in_o heaven_n but_o also_o in_o earth_n and_o in_o hell_n true_o i_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v every_o where_o but_o i_o deny_v

justice_n and_o vengeance_n true_o by_o such_o presence_n of_o god_n they_o have_v no_o joy_n no_o consolation_n no_o benefit_n or_o selicity_n for_o that_o all_o be_v curse_v in_o who_o god_n dwell_v

most_o true_a though_o marvellous_a for_o the_o evil_n be_v always_o where_o god_n be_v but_o yet_o god_n dwell_v not_o in_o they_o wheresoever_o the_o wicked_a be_v they_o can_v hide_v themselves_o from_o god_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o dweller_n with_o god_n nor_o god_n a_o dweller_n with_o they_o they_o be_v where_o god_n be_v as_o the_o blind_a man_n in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n the_o light_n be_v not_o in_o he_o because_o he_o have_v not_o the_o use_n of_o it_o but_o the_o good_a be_v always_o with_o god_n and_o god_n dwell_v in_o they_o as_o in_o his_o temple_n saint_n
