there_o be_v no_o good_a thing_n at_o all_o 2_o note_v hence_o that_o all_o satan_n temptation_n be_v they_o never_o so_o hellish_a and_o violent_a yet_o can_v hurt_v we_o if_o we_o yield_v not_o to_o they_o he_o never_o more_o fierce_o assail_v any_o than_o christ_n himself_o yet_o christ_n give_v no_o way_n to_o he_o be_v a_o little_a trouble_a and_o grieve_v we_o satan_n may_v allure_v but_o

which_o roll_v we_o into_o his_o sin_n and_o condemnation_n 2_o be_v fall_v into_o sin_n to_o accuse_v our_o own_o cowardliness_n and_o carelessness_n many_o be_v fall_v into_o mischief_n lay_v load_n upon_o the_o devil_n oh_o the_o devil_n ought_v they_o a_o spite_n and_o he_o have_v pay_v it_o and_o so_o lie_v all_o the_o blame_n on_o he_o not_o consider_v their_o own_o sin_n true_a it_o be_v the_o devil_n spite_n every_o man_n and_o the_o best_a most_o but_o if_o thou_o have_v not_o more_o spight_v thyself_o thou_o have_v do_v well_o enough_o the_o devil_n do_v move_v and_o give_v a_o rise_n to_o a_o sin_n but_o who_o bid_v thou_o perfect_a and_o finish_v it_o can_v the_o devil_n make_v thou_o sin_n without_o thyself_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o thou_o can_v not_o lay_v too_o much_o blame_v upon_o the_o devil_n but_o see_v thou_o lay_v not_o too_o little_a upon_o thyself_o 3_o note_n in_o that_o therefore_o christ_n full_o overcome_v and_o be_v not_o touch_v with_o temptation_n because_o by_o the_o perfection_n of_o his_o holiness_n he_o resist_v at_o the_o first_o we_o must_v learn_v this_o wisdom_n if_o we_o will_v not_o fall_v by_o temptation_n to_o resist_v
