that_o all_o judgement_n shall_v be_v of_o the_o same_o extent_n as_o all_o our_o face_n to_o be_v of_o the_o same_o colour_n and_o figure_n therefore_o consider_v what_o a_o injury_n it_o be_v to_o

be_v the_o seed_n of_o all_o disturbance_n in_o the_o church_n and_o although_o these_o lust_n may_v not_o be_v conspicuous_a and_o visible_a to_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n yet_o they_o be_v certain_o the_o fuel_n of_o our_o distemper_n the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v this_o those_o that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n they_o can_v but_o mourn_v and_o be_v sensible_a of_o these_o division_n i_o
