one_o remarkable_a accident_n which_o many_o in_o london_n this_o day_n can_v witness_v the_o truth_n of_o what_o i_o write_v thomas_z gun_n by_o name_n be_v the_o man_n who_o for_o gift_n and_o

be_v guilty_a of_o adultery_n and_o that_o for_o a_o long_a time_n deceive_v his_o own_o soul_n and_o the_o poor_a woman_n his_o torment_n for_o which_o can_v not_o be_v satisfy_v till_o he_o take_v a_o pistol_n and_o shot_n himself_o to_o death_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o he_o and_o so_o with_o many_o more_o little_a or_o much_o be_v in_o hell_n yea_o on_o this_o earth_n torment_v though_o nothing_o comparable_a to_o what_o thou_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n next_o appearance_n again_o thou_o say_v the_o devil_n be_v a_o wicked_a curse_a blasphemer_n against_o god_n and_o all_o that_o be_v good_a yea_o the_o devil_n be_v a_o lie_a murder_a persecutor_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n therefore_o man_n be_v not_o the_o devil_n because_o he_o be_v a_o true_a worshipper_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n ans_fw-fr if_o thou_o understand_v what_o thou_o say_v i_o can_v set_v to_o my_o seal_n that_o whosoever_o be_v a_o true_a worshipper_n of_o god_n be_v no_o devil_n for_o indeed_o none_o can_v worship_v he_o or_o be_v reverend_a of_o his_o name_n but_o those_o that_o be_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n those_o that_o be_v eternal_o preserve_v in_o peace_n

name_n thus_o far_o i_o agree_v and_o set_v to_o my_o seal_n that_o this_o man_n be_v no_o devil_n but_o alas_o how_o many_o of_o these_o be_v in_o this_o perish_a world_n though_o million_o of_o thousand_o thousand_o make_v a_o show_n and_o a_o talk_n of_o a_o god_n yet_o very_a few_o there_o be_v that_o know_v he_o as_o he_o be_v a_o glorious_a personal_a god_n so_o that_o true_a be_v that_o

but_o a_o handful_n to_o they_o that_o know_v he_o not_o but_o now_o to_o the_o query_n in_o hand_n the_o devil_n say_v thou_o be_v a_o wicked_a curse_a blasphemer_n against_o god_n and_o all_o that_o be_v good_a from_o whence_o thou_o conclude_v man_n can_v be_v this_o devil_n in_o that_o man_n be_v not_o so_o wicked_a as_o to_o curse_v and_o blaspheme_v god_n what_o if_o i_o can_v find_v out_o
