danger_n from_o all_o the_o creature_n there_o be_v no_o hedge_n about_o they_o god_n have_v not_o make_v a_o league_n with_o the_o beast_n in_o the_o field_n for_o they_o here_o be_v the_o misery_n

7._o 17._o even_o so_o every_o good_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n but_o a_o corrupt_a tree_n bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o ever_o the_o fruit_n shall_v be_v

that_o that_o good_a tree_n shall_v bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n oh_o know_v you_o that_o have_v interest_n in_o christ_n that_o all_o the_o fruit_n that_o you_o bring_v forth_o out_o of_o christ_n be_v lose_v i_o say_v man_n and_o woman_n they_o lose_v all_o their_o fruit_n it_o be_v such_o as_o the_o lord_n can_v accept_v of_o such_o as_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o delight_n in_o the_o lord_n can_v not_o endure_v that_o fruit_n that_o israel_n bring_v forth_o in_o the_o first_o of_o isaiah_n they_o be_v a_o burden_n to_o he_o their_o fruit_n he_o be_v weary_a of_o they_o and_o all_o the_o

it_o rot_v and_o perish_v it_o be_v never_o gather_v by_o christ_n his_o soul_n do_v never_o eat_v of_o it_o it_o be_v no_o delight_n to_o he_o and_o why_o because_o though_o the_o tree_n have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o seem_v good_a fruit_n on_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a tree_n it_o be_v a_o wild_a tree_n nay_o let_v man_n consider_v further_o what_o a_o fearful_a word_n be_v speak_v against_o such_o wild_a tree_n as_o bring_v forth_o no_o fruit_n to_o god_n or_o such_o fruit_n as_o be_v sour_a as_o his_o soul_n can_v have_v no_o pleasure_n nor_o delight_n in_o it_o be_v a_o
