sensuality_n do_v never_o so_o much_o abound_v he_o be_v blind_a that_o see_v not_o this_o and_o too_o malicious_a that_o will_v not_o acknowledge_v it_o the_o sin_n of_o this_o age_n be_v become_v

the_o life_n that_o god_n require_v we_o go_v to_o church_n indeed_o and_o we_o say_v to_o seek_v the_o lord_n but_o we_o do_v not_o seek_v he_o as_o if_o we_o mean_v to_o find_v he_o we_o seek_v he_o
