be_v his_o friend_n his_o anger_n be_v his_o friend_n now_o god_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o all_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o his_o very_a anger_n and_o justice_n be_v a_o friend_n too_o but_o answ_n

than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n as_o many_o as_o he_o love_v he_o chastise_v and_o bless_v be_v the_o man_n who_o thou_o chastise_v and_o teach_v out_o of_o thy_o law_n so_o that_o if_o

may_v grow_v thereby_o than_o it_o do_v come_v from_o love_n when_o a_o man_n intend_v to_o kill_v and_o destroy_v a_o tree_n or_o to_o bring_v it_o unto_o the_o fire_n he_o cut_v it_o at_o any_o

do_v not_o come_v from_o love_n be_v you_o not_o able_a to_o say_v thus_o i_o find_v it_o indeed_o though_o i_o have_v be_v much_o afflict_v yet_o through_o grace_n i_o have_v b●en_o able_a to_o
