i_o have_v obey_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n &_o have_v destroy_v the_o amalechite_n but_o the_o people_n take_v of_o the_o spoil_n sheep_n and_o ox_n and_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o thing_n which_o shall_v have_v be_v destroy_v for_o to_o offer_v they_o unto_o the_o lord_n unto_o who_o the_o prophet_n samuel_n answer_v have_v the_o lord_n as_o great_a pleasyr_n in_o burn_a offering_n &_o

the_o lord_n have_v also_o cast_v thou_o away_o from_o be_v king_n because_o then_o that_o saul_n do_v rather_o follow_v his_o good_a intent_n than_o the_o commandment_n and_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n
