of_o timerousness_n or_o worldliness_n do_v thereupon_o neglect_v and_o therefore_o though_o the_o priest_n david_n the_o disciple_n and_o other_o do_v upon_o urgent_a necessity_n lay_v upon_o they_o

without_o such_o necessity_n this_o we_o may_v gather_v from_o the_o example_n of_o daniel_n 1.8_o dan._n 1.8_o who_o will_v rather_o adventure_v upon_o the_o offend_n of_o the_o king_n and_o incur_v
