with_o the_o neglect_n of_o small_a matter_n and_o of_o thing_n indifferent_a which_o either_o the_o do_v or_o leave_v undo_v be_v no_o sign_n of_o sincerity_n or_o insincerity_n but_o they_o can_v

their_o church_n and_o of_o man_n than_o of_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o the_o weighty_a matter_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v constant_a in_o observe_v outward_a form_n of_o worship_n and_o time_n of_o prayer_n and_o the_o like_a but_o never_o mind_n what_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n as_o evil_a thought_n adultery_n lie_n malice_n envy_n covetousness_n pride_n etc._n etc._n these_o

they_o can_v endure_v any_o shall_v speak_v a_o word_n against_o their_o formal_a and_o outward_a worship_n they_o indeed_o be_v very_o strict_a and_o careful_a to_o follow_v all_o their_o outward_a

of_o piety_n and_o religion_n but_o within_o they_o be_v rot_v and_o stink_a sepulcher_n which_o be_v full_a of_o stench_n and_o dead_a man_n bone_n 6._o and_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n they_o shall_v be_v ashamed_a of_o their_o confidence_n and_o of_o their_o idol_n wherein_o they_o trust_v and_o which_o they_o have_v so_o deck_v up_o to_o make_v the_o world_n believe_v they_o be_v

of_o their_o holiness_n and_o because_o he_o censure_v they_o for_o hypocrite_n and_o blind_a pharisee_n nay_o the_o worst_a of_o all_o man_n yea_o worse_o than_o whoremonger_n thief_n and_z

and_o they_o receive_v all_o by_o wait_v on_o god_n only_o they_o can_v speak_v nor_o preach_v nor_o pray_v but_o when_o he_o do_v all_o these_o in_o they_o they_o will_v not_o be_v unjust_a to_o
