the_o first_o transgression_n we_o charge_v your_o assembly_n with_o be_v that_o you_o worship_v god_n after_o a_o false_a manner_n your_o worship_n be_v make_v of_o the_o invention_n of_o man_n

even_o of_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n the_o same_o be_v not_o the_o true_a church_n of_o god_n but_o the_o assembly_n as_o they_o general_o stand_v in_o england_n do_v worship_n the_o
