than_o ever_o we_o lose_v or_o can_v loose_v by_o the_o disobedience_n of_o adam_n in_o his_o life_n and_o therefore_o though_o that_o sin_n of_o adam_n be_v so_o heinous_a and_o so_o horrible_a that_o it_o cast_v the_o image_n of_o god_n out_o of_o paradise_n that_o it_o pollute_v all_o the_o race_n of_o mankind_n that_o it_o condemn_v the_o whole_a world_n that_o it_o deface_v the_o very_a
