they_o come_v against_o the_o mind_n and_o purpose_n of_o god_n observe_v here_o first_o those_o passion_n which_o be_v ascribe_v to_o god_n be_v full_o under_o the_o command_n of_o god_n the_o passion_n of_o anger_n be_v ascribe_v to_o god_n yet_o the_o anger_n which_o we_o say_v be_v in_o god_n have_v no_o power_n over_o god_n man_n anger_n usual_o master_v he_o but_o god_n be_v always_o

be_v his_o promise_n that_o he_o will_v turn_v to_o we_o when_o we_o pray_v then_o it_o appear_v to_o we_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v decree_v to_o do_v a_o thing_n when_o he_o stir_v up_o the_o
