grief_n they_o may_v rise_v again_o at_o the_o last_o day_n to_o eternal_a life_n reason_n 2_o second_o a_o man_n that_o be_v asleep_a may_v be_v awake_v out_o of_o the_o same_o by_o another_o even_o so_o the_o dead_a be_v as_o easy_o reviue_v by_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n as_o the_o live_a man_n awake_v out_o of_o his_o shallow_a slumber_n use_v 1_o such_o than_o do_v err_v not_o know_v the_o

ourselves_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v judge_v of_o the_o lord_n in_o this_o verse_n the_o apostle_n show_v a_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n deal_v so_o sharp_o with_o his_o people_n and_o correct_v
