evil_n do_v rather_o increase_v and_o heighten_v the_o sorrow_n while_o they_o have_v no_o tiding_n to_o tell_v but_o of_o grievous_a mischief_n and_o misery_n continual_o threaten_v and_o yet_o can_v

the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n and_o all_o the_o host_n of_o heaven_n be_v the_o power_n and_o strength_n of_o heaven_n by_o which_o according_a to_o nature_n god_n act_v upon_o earth_n now_o god_n

when_o he_o brandish_v his_o sword_n to_o strike_v therewith_o and_o thus_o god_n shake_v the_o power_n of_o heaven_n when_o the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n seem_v to_o dash_v one_o against_o

in_o respect_n of_o the_o cause_n move_v to_o bring_v on_o such_o calamity_n upon_o the_o nation_n with_o god_n vengeance_n for_o great_a and_o cry_v sin_n for_o say_v our_o saviour_n these_o 22_o
