faithful_a there_o be_v three_o cause_n first_o that_o to_o the_o blind_a there_o be_v no_o stumble_a block_n lay_v because_o nothing_o be_v more_o ready_a than_o for_o unbeliever_n by_o our_o

occasion_n give_v they_o to_o slander_v the_o gospel_n and_o so_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n be_v lay_v forth_o to_o be_v mock_v they_o be_v make_v worse_o and_o turmoil_v and_o persecution_n raise_v last_o that_o while_o we_o keep_v company_n with_o they_o at_o meat_n and_o other_o affair_n we_o be_v not_o stain_v with_o their_o spot_n and_o by_o a_o little_a and_o a_o little_a wax_n profane_a

therefore_o he_o bid_v that_o they_o be_v powder_v with_o salt_n profane_a person_n have_v their_o salte_n or_o witty_a say_n and_o conceit_n but_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o they_o nay_o rather_o
