wicked_a man_n creep_v in_o among_o they_o and_o be_v among_o they_o who_o know_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n when_o they_o come_v in_o and_o therefore_o the_o best_a church_n may_v have_v wicked_a man_n

therefore_o it_o be_v a_o most_o dreadful_a thing_n to_o be_v let_v alone_o reas_n 10_o yea_o further_o when_o god_n say_v let_v a_o man_n alone_o you_o will_v say_v god_n shall_v pity_v he_o then_o alas_o what_o can_v a_o man_n do_v no_o but_o his_o condition_n be_v thus_o when_o he_o be_v let_v alone_o though_o he_o be_v without_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n yet_o he_o must_v answer_v for_o as_o

for_o look_v what_o mean_v of_o grace_n we_o through_o sin_n have_v deprive_v ourselves_o of_o we_o must_v answer_v for_o they_o and_o there_o be_v none_o of_o your_o reason_n but_o may_v be_v

his_o reas_n 11_o condition_n be_v dreadful_a in_o this_o condemnation_n all_o mean_n increase_v his_o condemnation_n that_o now_o all_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n be_v make_v unprofitable_a to_o he_o
