in_o faith_n love_n repentance_n and_o obedience_n the_o good_a ground_n which_o receive_v good_a seed_n be_v very_o profitable_a to_o the_o owner_n send_v forth_o plenty_n of_o fruit_n even_o so_o

of_o the_o 24.31_o sluggard_n that_o be_v overgrow_v with_o thorn_n &_o nettle_n if_o a_o field_n be_v break_v up_o with_o the_o plough_n and_o if_o good_a seed_n be_v not_o sow_v therein_o it_o

never_o feel_v that_o plough_n let_v we_o therefore_o look_v to_o ourselves_o and_o labour_n to_o be_v fruitful_a in_o good_a thing_n 23.12_o apply_v thy_o heart_n to_o instruction_n and_o thy_o ear_n
