in_o a_o manner_n they_o burst_v asunder_o let_v we_o learn_v 1._o that_o he_o which_o do_v suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o sin_n deserve_v to_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o heaven_n 2._o that_o if_o here_o we_o will_v satisfy_v our_o sensuality_n as_o we_o listen_v god_n will_v afterward_o satisfy_v his_o justice_n as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v 3._o that_o he_o be_v ill_o advise_v who_o
