again_o he_o that_o will_v so_o fight_v as_o he_o may_v not_o beat_v the_o air_n but_o win_v the_o field_n must_v get_v strength_n and_o courage_n we_o must_v be_v strong_a in_o the_o lord_n and_o

be_v to_o no_o purpose_n we_o must_v strive_v therefore_o for_o the_o spirit_n of_o power_n as_o well_o as_o for_o a_o sound_a mind_n knowledge_n may_v guide_v we_o but_o strength_n must_v support_v

a_o old_a beat_a soldier_n cry_v often_o out_o 1.9_o walk_v wise_o be_v fill_v with_o all_o wisdom_n and_o spiritual_a understanding_n want_v of_o skill_n be_v a_o great_a want_n in_o a_o man_n of_o

that_o have_v will_n without_o skill_n and_o he_o will_v either_o smite_v flat-way_n or_o wound_v his_o friend_n for_o his_o adversary_n therefore_o i_o say_v get_v wisdom_n get_v understanding_n

when_o you_o know_v your_o own_o station_n keep_v it_o be_v not_o like_o judes_n planet_n wander_v christian_n soldier_n shall_v not_o need_v like_o spirit_n to_o be_v conjure_v in_o their_o circle_n put_v on_o the_o right_a armour_n david_n can_v walk_v in_o saul_n he_o must_v not_o overcome_v with_o such_o carnal_a weapon_n no_o no_o they_o must_v be_v spiritual_a that_o will_v wound_v and_o

for_o when_o i_o fight_v under_o his_o banner_n it_o be_v better_a with_o i_o than_o now_o david_n or_o some_o other_o worthy_a warrior_n dispute_v the_o case_n it_o seem_v whether_o it_o be_v

unto_o god_n true_o belove_v it_o never_o go_v so_o well_o with_o a_o christian_a soldier_n as_o when_o he_o be_v take_v of_o the_o lamb_n part_n war_a against_o the_o dragon_n &_o his_o follower_n
