if_o a_o fool_n shall_v call_v a_o man_n fool_n he_o do_v not_o regard_v it_o but_o if_o a_o wiseman_n especial_o the_o god_n of_o wisdom_n call_v a_o man_n fool_n he_o have_v reason_n to_o regard_v

in_o divers_a respect_n discern_v first_o for_o lack_v of_o discern_v in_o all_o the_o carriage_n and_o passage_n of_o their_o life_n you_o know_v a_o fool_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o can_v discern_v

a_o man_n that_o be_v passionate_a in_o this_o respect_n can_v be_v wise_a all_o fool_n be_v passionate_a and_o wicked_a man_n have_v their_o affection_n set_v deep_o on_o somewhat_o else_o beside_o

all_o breach_n of_o god_n will_v come_v from_o spiritual_a folly_n why_o do_v he_o begin_v with_o transgression_n against_o the_o first_o table_n and_o then_o iniquity_n the_o breach_n of_o the_o second_o because_o all_o breach_n of_o the_o second_o table_n issue_n from_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o first_o a_o man_n be_v never_o unjust_a to_o his_o neighbour_n first_o that_o do_v not_o rebel_n against_o god_n will_n in_o the_o first_o table_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o obedience_n &_o duty_n to_o man_n it_o rise_v from_o man_n obedience_n to_o god_n therefore_o the_o second_o table_n be_v like_o the_o first_o that_o be_v our_o love_n to_o our_o neighbour_n be_v like_a to_o our_o love_n of_o god_n not_o only_o like_o it_o but_o it_o spring_v from_o it_o for_o all_o come_v from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n therefore_o the_o first_o command_n of_o the_o first_o table_n run_v through_o all_o the_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v honour_v god_n and_o honour_n man_n because_o we_o
