thou_o that_o this_o burden_n shall_v be_v pleasant_a see_v god_n do_v help_v to_o sustain_v it_o but_o will_v thou_o see_v both_o these_o contrariety_n to_o concur_v in_o one_o person_n heart_n what_o saint_n paul_n say_v 5._o rom._n 5._o we_o suffer_v adversity_n in_o sundry_a sort_n yet_o be_v we_o not_o impatient_a we_o live_v in_o extreme_a penury_n nor_o for_o this_o be_v we_o overcom_v we_o abide_v persecution_n yet_o be_v we_o not_o destitute_a we_o be_v humble_v yet_o not_o confound_v oppress_v even_o to_o the_o earth_n yet_o not_o reject_v utter_o now_o regard_n on_o the_o one_o
