his_o dark_a wrathful_a property_n in_o the_o like_o wrathful_a property_n for_o he_o have_v first_o awaken_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n in_o himself_o and_o then_o this_o awaken_v wrath_n enter_v

wherein_o lucifer_n sit_v to_o cast_v this_o wicked_a guest_n out_o of_o his_o habitation_n into_o eternal_a darkness_n then_o the_o essence_n be_v compact_v for_o god_n will_v not_o beteem_v that_o
