about_o to_o pass_v our_o judgement_n upon_o other_o if_o at_o that_o time_n we_o can_v cast_v a_o eye_n upon_o ourselves_o and_o consider_v whether_o that_o very_a thing_n which_o we_o be_v go_v to_o

which_o we_o blame_v in_o they_o it_o will_v lay_v a_o mighty_a restraint_n upon_o we_o and_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o those_o forward_a motion_n we_o find_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o censure_v other_o for_o it_o be_v likely_a we_o shall_v find_v the_o same_o inclination_n if_o not_o the_o same_o distemper_n in_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o life_n and_o perhaps_o in_o our_o own_o case_n we_o call_v they_o by_o the_o name_n of_o infirmity_n and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v we_o give_v they_o a_o worse_a character_n in_o other_o man_n to_o conclude_v this_o it_o be_v evident_a this_o will_v

easy_a be_v both_o near_o at_o hand_n and_o likely_a to_o do_v we_o as_o much_o good_a as_o censure_v other_o do_v hurt_v and_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o be_v find_v fault_n with_o other_o we_o may_v know_v the_o better_a how_o to_o judge_v of_o they_o by_o the_o observation_n we_o have_v make_v at_o home_n where_o i_o believe_v we_o shall_v find_v that_o we_o do_v not_o love_v to_o pore_v as_o we_o speak_v upon_o our_o own_o fault_n or_o imperfection_n from_o which_o we_o be_v apt_a to_o turn_v away_o our_o eye_n and_o not_o keep_v they_o long_o fix_v on_o they_o i_o be_o sure_a we_o be_v
