and_o a_o cunning_a hunter_n seek_v for_o the_o precious_a life_n and_o chase_v my_o poor_a soul_n as_o a_o partridge_n on_o the_o mountain_n but_o my_o god_n have_v show_v i_o that_o the_o way_n to_o

i_o that_o if_o thousand_o fall_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n and_o ten_o of_o thousand_o on_o the_o other_o that_o shall_v not_o defile_v i_o and_o if_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v righteous_a that_o shall_v
