as_o he_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o always_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v a_o good_a conscience_n with_o every_o person_n in_o every_o action_n we_o have_v some_o that_o turn_v to_o their_o former_a course_n

of_o his_o carriage_n towards_o man_n now_o follow_v trial_n or_o sign_n of_o his_o justice_n towards_o god_n first_o he_o will_v true_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n mercy_n he_o be_v not_o
