of_o a_o die_a maid_n that_o i_o be_v under_o great_a trouble_n of_o conscience_n and_o be_v many_o time_n about_o discover_v it_o but_o can_v not_o satan_n temptation_n and_o the_o wickedness_n of_o

write_v to_o beware_v of_o i_o see_v he_o among_o the_o people_n in_o the_o house_n very_o busy_a and_o i_o make_v sign_n at_o he_o to_o discover_v he_o but_o the_o people_n be_v in_o a_o great_a

which_o you_o have_v all_o hear_v of_o and_o to_o come_v to_o this_o one_o thing_n which_o fall_v out_o in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o confinement_n in_o prison_n which_o i_o bless_v god_n for_o rather_o
