man_n be_v far_o great_a than_o the_o evil_n on_o the_o body_n though_o it_o be_v famine_n and_o pestilence_n because_o the_o evil_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n they_o be_v simple_o evil_a thing_n and_o such_o as_o in_o themselves_o do_v make_v man_n subject_a to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n which_o no_o other_o outward_a misery_n can_v do_v of_o itself_o indeed_o a_o man_n behaviour_n therein_o may_v make_v he_o lie_v open_a to_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n but_o the_o evil_n on_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v

that_o be_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n we_o can_v grieve_v for_o the_o misery_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o body_n of_o man_n and_o outward_a estate_n and_o we_o can_v bemoan_v and_o
