out_o and_o say_v 4.19_o arise_v o_o north_n and_o come_v o_o south_n and_o blow_v upon_o my_o garden_n that_o the_o spice_n thereof_o may_v flow_v out_o and_o forsomuch_o as_o she_o be_v his_o

perfect_a &_o glorious_a in_o all_o respect_n and_o albeit_o he_o do_v often_o suffer_v her_o faithful_a and_o true_a member_n to_o bring_v forth_o the_o weed_n of_o sin_n and_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o ruin_n of_o wickedness_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o through_o his_o negligence_n &_o oblivion_n or_o because_o he_o have_v cast_v they_o off_o but_o it_o be_v to_o teach_v they_o to_o distaste_n their_o pride_n and_o to_o confess_v that_o they_o can_v easy_o fall_v of_o themselves_o but_o be_v unable_a to_o stand_v or_o rise_v up_o without_o he_o the_o husbandman_n sometime_o let_v his_o ground_n lie_v as_o if_o he_o have_v forsake_v it_o and_o can_v be_v for_o a_o time_n content_a to_o see_v it_o grow_v with_o weed_n but_o he_o have_v a_o purpose_n to_o break_v it_o up_o with_o his_o plough_n and_o to_o bestow_v more_o cost_n upon_o it_o that_o it_o may_v be_v more_o fruitful_a then_o before_o he_o will_v not_o see_v it_o overgrown_a with_o weed_n he_o will_v not_o permit_v they_o to_o suck_v out_o the_o heart_n &_o to_o make_v it_o altogether_o barren_a &_o good_a for_o nothing_o so_o likewise_o we_o see_v many_o man_n suffer_v their_o house_n to_o decay_v &_o for_o a_o while_n to_o fall_v to_o ruin_v but_o their_o intent_n be_v to_o build_v they_o fair_a and_o to_o make_v they_o strong_a than_o they_o be_v before_o and_o thus_o god_n sometime_o deal_v with_o his_o

grace_n unto_o we_o as_o that_o if_o he_o suffer_v we_o to_o fall_v yet_o he_o will_v not_o let_v we_o fall_v quite_o a_o way_n but_o will_v in_o due_a season_n restore_v and_o lift_v we_o up_o
