in_o a_o godly_a man_n his_o desire_n be_v better_a than_o his_o deed_n he_o can_v do_v the_o good_a that_o he_o desire_v as_o the_o apostle_n plain_o confess_v of_o himself_o but_o the_o wicked_a have_v their_o desire_n worse_o than_o their_o deed_n for_o when_o they_o have_v do_v most_o wicked_o yet_o have_v they_o still_o a_o desire_n to_o do_v more_o till_o their_o torment_a conscience_n
