who_o promise_v your_o soul_n to_o feast_v but_o you_o that_o be_v by_o the_o serpent_n lead_v and_o likewise_o by_o the_o hireling_n feed_v poor_a food_n it_o be_v unto_o your_o soul_n you_o feed_v

that_o you_o his_o name_n may_v always_o fear_v better_o you_o have_v not_o profess_v his_o name_n nor_o have_v make_v mention_n of_o the_o same_o see_v you_o prove_v so_o deceitful_a and_o to_o the_o
