law_n of_o life_n say_v the_o apostle_n have_v free_v i_o from_o the_o law_n of_o death_n rom._n 8.2_o sin_n give_v parliament_n law_n and_o edict_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o as_o the_o centurion_n bid_v one_o servant_n go_v and_o he_o go_v and_o another_o come_v and_o he_o come_v so_o do_v sin_n say_v pride_n it_o be_v my_o pleasure_n you_o shall_v be_v proud_a therefore_o i_o will_v have_v you_o imperial_a and_o snappish_a say_v anger_n i_o will_v have_v you_o spleneticke_a and_o rage_n say_v the_o soul_n than_o i_o will_v it_o shall_v be_v do_v thus_o sin_n set_v up_o itself_o as_o

say_v pride_n shall_v i_o be_v a_o slave_n that_o the_o world_n shall_v awe_v i_o and_o snub_v i_o i_o will_v never_o yield_v it_o while_o i_o live_v i_o will_v die_v first_o this_o be_v a_o devil_n that_o draw_v you_o from_o god_n and_o will_v carry_v you_o to_o hell_n rom._n 7.23_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o place_n sin_n carry_v a_o man_n captive_a when_o the_o soul_n see_v
