this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v more_o licentious_a last_o joy_n young_a man_n want_v true_a joy_n in_o god_n therefore_o they_o betake_v themselves_o to_o carnal_a joy_n for_o sure_a

when_o they_o be_v not_o set_v upon_o god_n and_o christ_n now_o if_o young_a man_n will_v deal_v upright_o with_o themselves_o they_o shall_v perceive_v that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o their_o

second_o take_v encouragement_n then_o to_o seek_v the_o face_n of_o god_n in_o his_o own_o mean_n and_o way_n he_o have_v threaten_v judgement_n against_o other_o for_o the_o same_o sin_n that_o
