refore_o of_o necessity_n the_o bless_a word_n must_v be_v resist_v every_o sinner_n love_v his_o sin_n therefore_o you_o shall_v observe_v when_o a_o man_n speak_v against_o drunkenness_n &_o pride_n

when_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v pluckeââ¦_n the_o cup_n from_o the_o drunkard_n the_o whore_n from_o the_o adulterer_n he_o pluck_v his_o life_n every_o thing_n seek_v to_o preserve_v
