and_o i_o have_v make_v the_o stink_n of_o your_o corpse_n to_o come_v up_o in_o your_o nostril_n you_o have_v you_o not_o return_v
unto_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o have_v overthrow_v some_o of_o you_o as_o i_o overthrow_v sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n and_o you_o be_v as_o firebrand_n pluck_v out_o of_o the_o burn_n yet_o have_v you_o 〈◊〉_d return_v unto_o i_o say_v the_o lord_n therefore_o thus_o will_v i_o do_v with_o thou_o o_o israel_n and_o because_o i_o will_v do_v this_o unto_o thou_o prepare_v to_o meet_v thy_o god_n o_o israel_n i_o think_v if_o we_o right_o understand_v these_o word_n the_o lord_n may_v say_v as_o much_o to_o england_n as_o he_o do_v to_o israel_n and_o we_o may_v apply_v it_o to_o ourselves_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v this_o matter_n concerning_o the_o eclipse_n and_o desire_v you_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o this_o that_o when_o god_n show_v wonder_n in_o the_o heaven_n above_o and_o
