of_o life_n seem_v to_o the_o son_n and_o child_n of_o man_n to_o be_v pleasant_a fruit_n which_o indeed_o be_v but_o such_o as_o be_v death_n itself_o for_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o no_o man_n can_v

art_n and_o wisdom_n thou_o be_v my_o god_n they_o do_v not_o thus_o say_v with_o their_o mouth_n but_o their_o whole_a life_n and_o their_o idolatrize_a mind_n say_v as_o much_o by_o their_o deed_n for_o they_o continual_o sacrifice_v to_o their_o own_o drag_v and_o here_o it_o be_v that_o mortal_a man_n deny_v god_n and_o testify_v it_o by_o their_o work_n which_o be_v without_o faith_n be_v

to_o revenge_v themselves_o which_o do_v manifest_a they_o dare_v not_o trust_v god_n with_o their_o cause_n to_o avenge_v for_o they_o if_o otherwise_o why_o be_v they_o anctious_o careful_a why_o do_v they_o so_o exercise_v mischief_n and_o fraud_n and_o so_o deceive_v one_o another_o why_o do_v they_o make_v war_n and_o strife_n right_a or_o wrong_n for_o i_o and_o thou_o why_o do_v they_o so_o lie_v deceive_v and_o flatter_v one_o another_o why_o do_v they_o forget_v god_n and_o his_o say_n make_v no_o account_n of_o his_o commandment_n wherefore_o be_v they_o so_o covetous_o mind_v to_o labour_v night_n and_o day_n and_o to_o take_v every_o opportunity_n to_o improve_v every_o unrighteous_a advantage_n against_o their_o neighbour_n to_o get_v and_o heap_v up_o the_o perish_a thing_n of_o this_o world_n riches_n true_o all_o this_o be_v because_o they_o retain_v not_o god_n in_o their_o thought_n to_o believe_v that_o he_o have_v any_o care_n of_o they_o or_o that_o he_o

they_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o his_o word_n slight_v until_o with_o many_o they_o cause_v his_o spirit_n to_o leave_v strive_v for_o they_o oppress_v the_o seed_n and_o crucify_v the_o just_a principle_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o and_o account_v the_o word_n of_o god_n a_o insufficient_a help_n in_o time_n of_o adversity_n therefore_o it_o well_o please_v they_o to_o
