of_o their_o own_o guilt_n sometime_o torment_v their_o conscience_n and_o fill_v they_o with_o fear_n and_o horror_n sometime_o they_o rage_n and_o fret_v against_o those_o that_o help_v on_o their_o

next_o to_o the_o devil_n and_o those_o in_o hell_n there_o be_v no_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n more_o miserable_a than_o wicked_a ungodly_a people_n and_o whilst_o we_o see_v what_o the_o

run_v into_o by_o their_o own_o evil_a do_n even_o as_o a_o man_n that_o thrust_v his_o hand_n into_o the_o fire_n be_v like_a to_o feel_v pain_n and_o smart_n by_o forsake_v of_o god_n they_o

be_v most_o profitable_a for_o we_o even_o in_o this_o present_a world_n prevent_v much_o evil_n and_o bring_v all_o manner_n of_o good_a along_o with_o it_o or_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v fall_v into_o such_o hard_a time_n as_o to_o suffer_v mere_o for_o religion_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n he_o shall_v then_o common_o find_v such_o wonderful_a comfort_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o mind_n that_o he_o will_v even_o triumph_v and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o suffering_n as_o we_o know_v the_o apostle_n and_o primitive_a christian_n do_v and_o that_o especial_o in_o hope_n of_o

even_o at_o death_n a_o good_a man_n have_v ground_n of_o much_o comfort_n have_v the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o the_o sense_n of_o god_n love_n so_o that_o with_o saint_n
