and_o of_o his_o neighbour_n will_v not_o easy_o be_v tempt_v to_o commit_v any_o heinous_a crime_n yet_o because_o sin_n do_v easy_o insinuate_v themselves_o under_o the_o mask_n of_o good_a and_o the_o world_n the_o flesh_n and_o the_o devil_n do_v endeavour_v a_o thousand_o way_n by_o allurement_n by_o deceit_n or_o by_o force_n to_o tempt_v we_o from_o our_o good_a purpose_n and_o resolution_n of_o live_v well_o it_o therefore_o behoove_v a_o christian_n to_o arm_v himself_o against_o the_o assault_n of_o all_o capital_a sin_n for_o as_o in_o war_n he_o that_o know_v the_o enemy_n be_v near_o provide_v himself_o with_o all_o necessary_a weapon_n keep_v watch_n and_o sentinel_n that_o so_o he_o may_v at_o all_o time_n be_v in_o a_o readiness_n to_o oppose_v the_o enemy_n in_o like_a manner_n it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o have_v always_o our_o spiritual_a armour_n at_o hand_n with_o which_o we_o may_v resist_v the_o enemy_n of_o our_o salvation_n the_o world_n the_o

riches_n and_o honour_n 2.16_o 1_o john_n 2.16_o and_o those_o enormous_a sin_n which_o arise_v from_o hence_o as_o pride_n covetousness_n luxury_n envy_n anger_n enmity_n and_o hatred_n and_o the_o like_a it_o be_v therefore_o the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a diligent_o to_o consider_v how_o he_o may_v best_o fortify_v himself_o against_o these_o vice_n and_o first_o against_o pride_n the_o
