to_o be_v entreat_v to_o be_v peaceable_a spirit_n to_o be_v full_a of_o good_a fruit_n bear_v good_a fruit_n to_o the_o nation_n to_o man_n as_o man_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o all_o in_o

as_o just_a towards_o a_o unbeliever_n as_o towards_o a_o believer_n and_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o do_v so_o i_o confess_v i_o have_v often_o say_v it_o foolish_o if_o i_o will_v miscarry_v i_o will_v rather_o do_v it_o to_o a_o believer_n then_o to_o a_o unbeliever_n perhaps_o it_o be_v a_o paradox_n but_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o do_v it_o to_o either_o exercise_v injustice_n to_o

will_v help_v we_o to_o execute_v the_o judgement_n of_o truth_n and_o mercy_n also_o a_o second_o thing_n be_v to_o desire_v you_o will_v be_v faithful_a with_o the_o saint_n and_o i_o hope_v
