then_o the_o king_n say_v unto_o gideon_n rise_v thou_o and_o fall_n upon_o we_o for_o as_o the_o man_n be_v so_o be_v his_o strength_n our_o carnal_a lust_n and_o carnal_a concupiscence_n whereby_o

there_o be_v many_o reason_n partly_o because_o gideon_n speak_v to_o his_o first_o bear_v to_o slay_v they_o not_o boy_n indeed_o as_o he_o be_v to_o who_o gideon_n speak_v but_o of_o ripe_a year_n
