death_n be_v a_o privation_n itself_o and_o it_o bring_v a_o hundred_o privation_n with_o it_o even_o a_o privation_n of_o all_o the_o privilege_n of_o the_o live_n this_o the_o law_n do_v when_o it_o

to_o help_v itself_o and_o this_o as_o it_o do_v make_v a_o man_n a_o object_n of_o the_o gospel_n one_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v as_o it_o point_v out_o such_o a_o man_n so_o there_o be_v a_o

that_o be_v bruise_v when_o the_o law_n have_v humble_v a_o man_n and_o thus_o bring_v down_o his_o will_n then_o begin_v the_o work_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v of_o natural_a

there_o be_v no_o return_n to_o his_o former_a life_n so_o when_o the_o law_n have_v deaden_v a_o man_n it_o hold_v a_o man_n there_o though_o a_o man_n will_v never_o so_o fain_o get_v out_o he_o

when_o the_o body_n be_v dead_a all_o the_o member_n be_v stiff_a the_o beat_n of_o the_o pulse_n cease_v and_o all_o be_v stiff_a so_o when_o a_o man_n be_v kill_v by_o the_o law_n it_o make_v his_o

when_o all_o come_v to_o all_o they_o shall_v find_v it_o lie_v hollow_a and_o will_v be_v out_o before_o they_o be_v aware_a second_o consider_v how_o sickly_a and_o disease_a our_o sickly_a soul_n
