perhaps_o they_o have_v begin_v to_o wax_v cold_a and_o altogether_o to_o be_v extinguish_v and_o after_o that_o they_o fall_v into_o such_o despise_n of_o god_n and_o his_o word_n that_o they_o be_v

when_o satan_n know_v that_o there_o be_v any_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o any_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o do_v any_o thing_n reverence_n the_o holy_a scripture_n he_o arm_v
