be_v join_v with_o power_n and_o might_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v danger_n of_o some_o fearful_a effect_n and_o so_o make_v they_o suspect_v the_o worse_o it_o be_v so_o betwixt_o man_n and_o man_n

they_o read_v often_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n write_v they_o hear_v they_o threaten_v against_o particular_a sin_n and_o it_o may_v be_v their_o own_o they_o see_v they_o execute_v upon_o

it_o so_o long_o as_o a_o man_n be_v not_o outrageous_a how_o many_o that_o think_v repentance_n be_v not_o so_o difficult_a as_o man_n will_v make_v it_o for_o at_o their_o death_n for_o a_o little_a

they_o speak_v and_o believe_v they_o much_o less_o apprehend_v more_o never_o cast_v the_o worst_a but_o make_v the_o best_a of_o every_o thing_n this_o security_n argue_v that_o thou_o want_v this_o
