a_o pistol_n and_o shot_n himself_o to_o death_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o he_o and_o so_o with_o many_o more_o little_a or_o much_o be_v in_o hell_n yea_o on_o this_o earth_n torment_v though_o nothing_o comparable_a to_o what_o thou_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n next_o appearance_n again_o thou_o say_v the_o devil_n be_v a_o wicked_a curse_a blasphemer_n against_o god_n

but_o man_n burn_v in_o lust_n with_o man_n and_o woman_n with_o woman_n as_o before_o relate_v and_o the_o more_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o what_o they_o do_v in_o this_o nature_n they_o

more_o happy_a than_o when_o they_o be_v a_o whore_v or_o drink_v which_o to_o they_o be_v a_o pure_a truth_n as_o any_o sentence_n in_o holy_a writ_n for_o they_o do_v not_o esteem_v that_o sin_n which_o the_o scripture_n record_v for_o sin_n in_o that_o they_o do_v not_o know_v what_o to_o make_v of_o that_o glorious_a personal_a god_n nor_o his_o writing_n look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o history_n of_o man_n invention_n for_o say_v they_o the_o scripture_n be_v a_o mere_a map_n of_o contradiction_n so_o that_o such_o devil_n of_o this_o kind_n in_o their_o heart_n do_v not_o believe_v it_o no_o more_o than_o another_o writing_n only_o for_o fear_v of_o the_o law_n they_o will_v say_v as_o you_o say_v for_o what_o do_v they_o affirm_v a_o lie_n and_o a_o truth_n be_v all_o one_o to_o we_o and_o so_o whatsoever_o we_o do_v be_v righteous_a just_a and_o good_a and_o when_o we_o die_v we_o shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o into_o the_o infinite_a spirit_n as_o a_o drop_n into_o the_o

round_o as_o before_o as_o for_o hell_n or_o damnation_n it_o be_v all_o here_o so_o if_o they_o can_v but_o escape_v prison_n sickness_n and_o want_v of_o money_n they_o fear_v no_o other_o hell_n or_o torment_n hereafter_o whatsoever_o now_o let_v any_o sober_a man_n consider_v the_o devil_n quality_n that_o act_v forth_o this_o sort_n of_o this_o curse_a seed_n and_o as_o for_o their_o

for_o some_o of_o this_o sort_n when_o they_o be_v in_o company_n with_o their_o curse_a tribe_n what_o oath_n or_o oath_n be_v ever_o hear_v by_o the_o ear_n of_o man_n but_o they_o have_v it_o and_o that_o with_o authority_n from_o their_o father_n cain_n they_o maintain_v it_o and_o that_o seem_o from_o scripture_n and_o so_o will_v take_v oath_n against_o any_o one_o they_o have_v a_o revenge_n to_o if_o their_o false_a oath_n will_v prevail_v they_o will_v do_v it_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o white_a light_n rant_a devil_n 2._o the_o next_o sort_n of_o this_o curse_a seed_n be_v quality_v and_o act_v forth_o in_o most_o wickedness_n like_v unto_o the_o first_o only_o the_o difference_n be_v the_o white_a rant_a devil_n do_v approve_v of_o all_o his_o wickedness_n to_o be_v

soever_o he_o come_v he_o will_v speak_v against_o these_o curse_a action_n and_o that_o because_o he_o do_v not_o only_o know_v they_o to_o be_v evil_a but_o he_o be_v afraid_a his_o wife_n husband_n

for_o it_o these_o and_o such_o like_a be_v the_o motive_n induce_v he_o to_o speak_v against_o that_o with_o his_o tongue_n which_o his_o heart_n burn_v and_o lu_v after_o but_o however_o all_o these_o outward_a fear_n attend_v he_o yet_o this_o lust_n or_o devil_n be_v so_o desire_v after_o a_o beautiful_a maid_n or_o another_o man_n wife_n that_o though_o he_o will_v say_v it_o be_v a_o

to_o come_v and_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o his_o dangerous_a attempt_n arise_v from_o these_o and_o such_o like_a thought_n i_o may_v escape_v as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o i_o will_v be_v sure_a
