worker_n of_o miracle_n shall_v be_v throw_v into_o the_o chain_n of_o everlasting_a darkness_n oh_o that_o man_n will_v serious_o consider_v this_o and_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n with_o all_o

in_o regard_n of_o the_o corrupt_a manner_n of_o do_v christ_n call_v they_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n this_o doctrine_n condemn_v all_o man_n which_o do_v lawful_a thing_n unlawful_o how_o much_o

after_o a_o unlawful_a manner_n in_o consideration_n whereof_o all_o those_o that_o be_v out_o of_o the_o church_n be_v just_o term_v worker_n of_o iniquity_n for_o the_o which_o at_o the_o day_n of_o
