that_o which_o be_v thus_o spend_v will_v again_o be_v restore_v whereas_o if_o we_o churlish_o refuse_v to_o impart_v and_o communicate_v this_o milk_n of_o god_n blessing_n it_o be_v the_o ready_a

we_o be_v such_o atheist_n as_o to_o trust_v the_o ground_n and_o not_o god_n yea_o let_v we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o grudge_v these_o alm_n to_o the_o poor_a when_o we_o have_v fit_a occasion_n that_o we_o do_v they_o with_o joy_n and_o thankfulness_n unto_o god_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o so_o fit_a a_o opportunity_n of_o sow_v our_o seed_n that_o so_o we_o may_v reap_v a_o fruitful_a

his_o seed_n in_o with_o a_o faithful_a promise_n that_o he_o shall_v reap_v the_o whole_a crop_n for_o his_o own_o use_n and_o benefit_n but_o thus_o god_n deal_v with_o we_o when_o he_o give_v we_o

shall_v free_o receive_v of_o another_o land_n to_o sow_v his_o seed_n in_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o sure_a of_o a_o fruitful_a harvest_n for_o many_o accident_n usual_o happen_v which_o cut_v off_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o most_o skilful_a husbandman_n as_o frost_n and_o mildew_n worm_n and_o locust_n tare_n and_o weed_n too_o much_o wet_v or_o too_o much_o drought_n may_v destroy_v the_o corn_n
