in_o the_o midst_n of_o samaria_n how_o many_o million_o think_v they_o walk_v fair_o on_o to_o heaven_n when_o indeed_o they_o be_v in_o the_o broad_a way_n that_o lead_v to_o destruction_n oh_o

they_o if_o careless_a and_o loath_a to_o be_v at_o the_o pain_n of_o know_v more_o it_o persuade_v they_o they_o know_v enough_o that_o they_o cry_v out_o of_o more_o as_o he_o do_v on_o the_o
