fashion_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o notwithstanding_o for_o the_o cause_n of_o christ_n and_o to_o do_v he_o service_n i_o have_v and_o do_v bid_v adieu_o to_o father_n friend_n riches_n pleasure_n

his_o glory_n and_o truth_n tread_v under_o foot_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o servant_n shed_v and_o spill_v yes_o without_o doubt_v it_o be_v but_o many_o be_v in_o these_o time_n so_o far_o
