the_o conscience_n so_o i_o can_v pass_v by_o this_o but_o in_o these_o word_n i_o must_v mark_v the_o strive_n of_o the_o poor_a conscience_n albeit_o it_o be_v once_o dumb_a yet_o it_o will_v come_v

unto_o he_o &_o will_v not_o leave_v he_o brethren_n as_o the_o conscience_n be_v a_o admonisher_n so_o it_o cleave_v fast_o and_o no_o man_n will_v get_v it_o extinguish_v albeit_o the_o loune_z will_v strive_v to_o shake_v it_o off_o yet_o it_o will_v stick_v to_o he_o and_o whisper_v again_o to_o he_o but_o after_o it_o be_v once_o change_v from_o a_o admonisher_n to_o a_o tormentor_n when_o thou_o have_v tempt_v it_o if_o it_o stack_n to_o thou_o before_o it_o shall_v stick_v a_o hundred_o time_n sore_a and_o shall_v fasten_v itself_o in_o thy_o miserable_a soul_n so_o that_o if_o
