more_o it_o be_v the_o very_a sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o be_v malice_n and_o final_a impenitency_n o_o therefore_o sinner_n take_v heed_n thou_o be_v upon_o the_o very_a brink_n of_o hell_n upon_o the_o very_a border_n and_o edge_n of_o that_o unpardonable_a sin_n o_o cast_v out_o this_o sin_n lest_o god_n cast_v thou_o out_o of_o his_o presence_n now_o brethren_n consider_v

with_o our_o profession_n so_o scandalous_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o opposite_a to_o true_a conversion_n sound_n and_o sincere_a holiness_n a_o sin_n that_o win_v our_o affection_n
