crime_n above_o all_o other_o abominable_a for_o to_o what_o end_n be_v it_o that_o god_n erect_v his_o throne_n among_o we_o but_o for_o that_o we_o shall_v fear_v he_o why_o do_v he_o reveal_v his_o

himself_o have_v in_o his_o great_a mercy_n visit_v they_o and_o yet_o that_o they_o continue_v wicked_a even_o as_o before_o what_o deserve_v they_o but_o effectual_o to_o be_v give_v over_o into_o a_o reprobate_a sense_n that_o headlong_o they_o may_v run_v to_o ruin_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n it_o be_v almost_o incredible_a that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o enrage_v against_o god_n that_o neither_o his_o plague_n nor_o yet_o his_o mercy_n show_v shall_v move_v they_o to_o repentance_n but_o because_o the_o scripture_n bear_v witness_v of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o let_v we_o
