which_o be_v not_o long_o after_o but_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o my_o idle_a and_o sensual_a life_n i_o have_v intermission_n of_o consideration_n not_o without_o some_o trouble_n my_o bashfulness_n

in_o myself_o it_o be_v a_o great_a occasion_n of_o mischief_n to_o i_o and_o do_v expose_v i_o to_o a_o loose_a life_n but_o lord_n have_v i_o stir_v up_o in_o myself_o that_o stock_n of_o grace_n
