he_o and_o thou_o be_v partaker_n with_o the_o adulterer_n vers._n 22._o o_o consider_v you_o that_o forget_v god_n lest_o i_o tear_v you_o in_o piece_n and_o there_o be_v none_o to_o deliver_v you_o

with_o you_o to_o break_v the_o neck_n of_o your_o cockfighting_n pleasure_n consider_v well_o with_o yourself_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v you_o as_o it_o be_v into_o the_o cockpit_n of_o the_o
