may_v see_v notable_o prove_v 2._o sam._n 12.7_o where_o nathan_n the_o prophet_n be_v send_v to_o reproove_v david_n for_o those_o heinous_a sin_n of_o murder_n and_o adultery_n which_o he_o have_v

wherefore_o have_v thou_o despise_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o do_v evil_a in_o his_o sight_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n why_o the_o lord_n shall_v require_v the_o

for_o first_o of_o all_o by_o a_o like_a reason_n do_v not_o the_o husbandman_n expect_v the_o goodly_a crop_n from_o that_o ground_n upon_o which_o he_o have_v bestow_v the_o great_a cost_n and_o
