not_o one_o and_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n to_o the_o roman_n say_v thus_o if_o god_n truth_n abound_v through_o my_o lie_v lie_v also_o there_o be_v another_o sort_n of_o lease_v that_o draw_v

be_v find_v light_a than_o vanity_n itself_o also_o the_o preacher_n say_v that_o all_o that_o be_v in_o this_o world_n be_v vanity_n of_o vanity_n or_o nothing_o of_o nothing_o that_o be_v to_o say_v there_o be_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n that_o can_v give_v a_o man_n true_a and_o sure_a contentment_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n settle_v and_o certain_a as_o say_v mercury_n speak_v of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o we_o say_v that_o in_o man_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o lease_v for_o they_o be_v not_o so_o certain_a as_o other_o thing_n no_o not_o even_o as_o the_o heavenly_a body_n and_o element_n which_o be_v not_o change_v for_o fire_n continue_v always_o fire_n earth_n earth_n and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n but_o man_n consist_v of_o the_o four_o
