this_o question_n to_o you_o what_o evil_a do_v thou_o find_v in_o i_o that_o thou_o desire_v i_o not_o how_o often_o have_v i_o go_v about_o to_o melt_v thou_o with_o my_o love_n and_o do_v but_o

to_o such_o you_o have_v often_o draw_v near_o to_o i_o in_o my_o ordinance_n but_o i_o you_o affect_v not_o the_o devil_n your_o own_o sin_n and_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n have_v oppress_v you_o i_o

of_o the_o hand_n of_o your_o enemy_n but_o you_o have_v forsake_v i_o the_o fountain_n of_o life_n and_o blessedness_n and_o therefore_o now_o what_o have_v you_o to_o do_v to_o take_v my_o word_n
