be_v how_o joyful_a and_o precious_a a_o thing_n god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n be_v how_o exceed_v broad_a wide_a high_a and_o deep_a christ_n love_n be_v perchance_o he_o can_v talk_v and_o preach_v of_o faith_n but_o yet_o true_o in_o heart_n he_o never_o feel_v it_o effectual_o for_o if_o he_o do_v once_o feel_v this_o ravish_a consolation_n indeed_o then_o will_v he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o

youth_n even_o as_o the_o eagle_n do_v for_o as_o we_o be_v in_o the_o servitude_n of_o sin_n demonstrate_v our_o service_n by_o give_v over_o our_o member_n to_o the_o obey_n of_o sin_n from_o

a_o demonstration_n of_o a_o lipfaith_o or_o unbelief_n a_o sign_n of_o satan_n spirit_n possess_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o impenitent_a which_o all_o those_o be_v that_o be_v not_o penitent_a for_o
