come_v when_o light_n be_v put_v out_o what_o can_v we_o expect_v but_o that_o darkness_n will_v follow_v when_o god_n call_v off_o his_o shepherd_n we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o fear_n he_o will_v

a_o sad_a and_o grievous_a thing_n oh_o there_o be_v a_o famine_n the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o not_o of_o bread_n but_o of_o the_o word_n and_o when_o god_n take_v away_o his_o minister_n so_o
