and_o indeed_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n lie_v so_o heavy_a upon_o he_o as_o that_o it_o pierce_v his_o very_a soul_n for_o have_v christ_n suffer_v only_o in_o

be_v this_o due_o consider_v it_o will_v damp_n all_o the_o present_a pleasure_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o set_v they_o on_o work_n to_o make_v their_o peace_n with_o god_n use_v 2_o second_o see_v
