for_o serpent_n corrupt_v the_o earth_n with_o their_o breath_n but_o do_v not_o eat_v it_o that_o i_o ever_o read_v nor_o hinder_v it_o that_o in_o isaiah_n we_o read_v to_o the_o serpent_n dust_n

4._o out_o of_o what_o have_v be_v say_v concern_v the_o tempter_n it_o appear_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o interpret_n that_o the_o devil_n shall_v have_v come_v to_o the_o woman_n by_o the_o
