can_v be_v the_o end_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n now_o the_o lord_n be_v my_o witness_n when_o i_o have_v see_v and_o feel_v this_o ungodliness_n a_o tender_a pity_n have_v arise_v in_o i_o towards_o

how_o their_o strength_n be_v take_v from_o they_o and_o how_o it_o vanish_v away_o like_a smoke_n yea_o the_o lord_n be_v righteous_a and_o powerful_a and_o if_o he_o speak_v but_o the_o word_n it_o
