he_o seldom_o tempt_v but_o he_o lay_v his_o temptation_n in_o our_o own_o disposition_n something_o suitable_a unto_o the_o temptation_n so_o when_o david_n have_v a_o mind_n to_o number_v the_o

than_o he_o come_v and_o tempt_v he_o to_o turn_v stone_n into_o bread_n when_o again_o he_o cry_v out_o and_o say_v my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o then_o say_v the_o devil_n

not_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o person_n depart_v but_o fall_v into_o conference_n about_o some_o other_o good_a thing_n different_a and_o by_o that_o time_n his_o heart_n be_v settle_v upon_o some_o
