to_o much_o more_o than_o vanity_n with_o flatter_v lip_n and_o with_o a_o double_a heart_n do_v they_o speak_v psal_n 12._o 2._o in_o the_o margin_n there_o for_o a_o double_a heart_n be_v a_o

and_o ill_a consequent_a of_o it_o it_o be_v so_o much_o sin_n in_o the_o mean_a while_n and_o will_v be_v punishment_n hereafter_o according_a to_o what_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n say_v the_o

fear_n god_n more_o than_o man_n even_o their_o faith_n for_o such_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v the_o great_a lawgiver_n able_a to_o save_v and_o to_o destroy_v that_o as_o he_o do_v good_a so_o he_o
