of_o the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man._n i_o will_v not_o at_o the_o first_o either_o take_v so_o much_o for_o grant_v or_o attempt_v the_o probation_n of_o it_o whatsoever_o be_v to_o be_v say_v

more_o than_o the_o reject_v of_o false_a god_n yet_o inasmuch_o as_o god_n preface_v this_o prohibition_n with_o i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o the_o prohibition_n itself_o manifest_o imply_v the_o have_v of_o he_o for_o our_o god_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o when_o god_n save_v thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o god_n before_o i_o his_o meaning_n be_v as_o well_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v he_o for_o our_o god_n as_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o other_o god_n beside_o again_o when_o the_o have_v of_o any_o one_o for_o our_o god_n imply_v the_o fear_v and_o
