which_o be_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n and_o which_o never_o fall_v upon_o any_o one_o but_o for_o sin_n reign_v over_o all_o man_n from_o the_o day_n of_o adam_n to_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n though_o

by_o the_o remission_n and_o pardon_n of_o their_o many_o sin_n and_o offence_n 18._o therefore_o as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o judgement_n come_v upon_o all_o man_n to_o condemnation_n even_o
