understand_v object_n object_n but_o it_o may_v seem_v hard_a and_o unjust_a that_o see_v only_o the_o body_n do_v take_v and_o eat_v of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n that_o the_o soul_n also_o shall_v be_v condemn_v to_o this_o death_n as_o well_o as_o the_o body_n resp._n resp._n but_o to_o satisfy_v this_o doubt_n the_o father_n say_v that_o as_o well_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o body_n be_v in_o

of_o they_o without_o other_o can_v be_v guilty_a they_o conspire_v both_o together_o and_o agree_v that_o the_o blind_a man_n shall_v carry_v the_o lame_a man_n to_o the_o tree_n and_o so_o to_o take_v their_o pleasure_n and_o fulfil_v their_o desire_n by_o which_o mean_n they_o both_o become_v guilty_a of_o death_n such_o a_o thing_n say_v they_o in_o resemblance_n be_v between_o the_o
