of_o gild_n and_o wickedness_n nor_o can_v we_o hope_v to_o escape_v from_o god_n just_a severity_n since_o sin_n be_v that_o dark_a body_n which_o interpose_v between_o we_o and_o the_o light_n of_o

the_o mean_a particle_n of_o the_o creation_n have_v oftentimes_o in_o the_o avenge_a hand_n of_o god_n be_v dreadful_a instrument_n of_o his_o displeasure_n if_o therefore_o we_o be_v unwilling_a
