upon_o the_o party_n because_o of_o our_o wrath_n but_o upon_o his_o sin_n because_o of_o our_o zeal_n we_o still_o retain_v a_o tender_a affection_n towards_o the_o person_n of_o the_o offender_n when_o our_o saviour_n christ_n go_v about_o to_o heal_v the_o man_n that_o have_v the_o wither_a hand_n the_o pharisee_n that_o stand_v by_o murmur_v because_o he_o will_v heal_v on_o the_o sabbath_n
