to_o strengthen_v ourselves_o through_o christian_a faith_n that_o its_o sting_n may_v not_o prick_v our_o soul_n and_o bring_v it_o to_o the_o second_o death_n and_o withal_o we_o have_v endeavour_v to_o establish_v the_o waver_a soul_n in_o this_o faith_n and_o to_o relieve_v the_o trouble_a conscience_n with_o comfortable_a speech_n and_o example_n that_o may_v instruct_v they_o and_o last_o
