in_o this_o world_n for_o a_o christian_a man_n but_o those_o trouble_n be_v short_a transitory_a and_o of_o no_o continuance_n against_o all_o these_o thing_n the_o word_n teach_v i_o that_o here_o

this_o thing_n must_v we_o learn_v and_o diligent_o consider_v in_o our_o heart_n that_o we_o be_v not_o offend_v nor_o forsake_v the_o voice_n of_o our_o shephearde_n though_o the_o christian_n be_v

when_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v through_o out_o the_o world_n and_o by_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o word_n it_o be_v yet_o practise_v &_o shall_v be_v unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n not_o
