in_o this_o case_n if_o we_o be_v bring_v to_o this_o exigent_n that_o we_o see_v we_o can_v hold_v out_o any_o long_o we_o be_v not_o strong_a than_o he_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o cor._n 10._o 10._o be_v we_o strong_a than_o he_o when_o a_o man_n be_v persuade_v of_o that_o when_o a_o man_n see_v this_o necessity_n be_v lay_v upon_o he_o or_o else_o he_o perish_v than_o he_o will_v come_v in_o so_o take_v a_o servant_n or_o a_o son_n if_o he_o be_v able_a to_o live_v from_o his_o father_n or_o master_n house_n perhaps_o he_o will_v run_v at_o riot_n still_o but_o when_o he_o see_v he_o can_v have_v so_o much_o as_o husk_n he_o can_v have_v nothing_o to_o sustain_v he_o that_o be_v it_o that_o will_v bring_v he_o home_o so_o take_v a_o wife_n a_o spouse_n if_o one_o come_v to_o woo_v she_o if_o she_o be_v able_a to_o live_v without_o he_o it_o may_v be_v she_o will_v refuse_v he_o but_o if_o the_o case_n be_v so_o that_o she_o can_v subsist_v but_o the_o creditor_n will_v come_v

not_o do_v it_o than_o it_o show_v he_o the_o curse_n when_o a_o man_n see_v the_o misery_n that_o the_o law_n bring_v upon_o he_o and_o pronounce_v against_o he_o that_o he_o be_v condemn_v that_o
