our_o actual_a rebellion_n against_o he_o with_o a_o senseless_a obduratenesse_n with_o a_o plausible_a security_n and_o deadness_n of_o spirit_n when_o he_o reward_v our_o neglect_n and_o contempt_n of_o his_o ordinance_n with_o give_v we_o up_o to_o spiritual_a delusion_n and_o to_o the_o seduction_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o error_n to_o prodigious_a whimsy_n and_o spiritual_a blasphemy_n we_o
