and_o so_o i_o have_v go_v over_o the_o doctrinal_a part_n of_o the_o observation_n the_o first_o use_n may_v be_v to_o awaken_v and_o startle_v professor_n that_o though_o they_o do_v name_n the_o

the_o desire_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v to_o thou_o and_o to_o the_o remembrance_n of_o thy_o name_n we_o look_v for_o no_o other_o mercy_n but_o what_o the_o lord_n give_v and_o no_o other_o help_n but_o what_o he_o vouchsafe_v these_o be_v the_o person_n to_o who_o st._n paul_n give_v this_o advice_n second_o here_o be_v the_o advice_n and_o counsel_n itself_o let_v all_o such_o person_n depart_v from_o iniquity_n the_o word_n in_o the_o greek_a be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d let_v he_o be_v a_o apostate_n from_o sin_n and_o satan_n when_o luther_n be_v challenge_v by_o the_o

from_o iniquity_n depart_v from_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o and_o from_o the_o love_n of_o it_o and_o as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v from_o any_o inclination_n to_o it_o you_o can_v never_o reconcile_v

your_o life_n be_v a_o contradiction_n to_o your_o profession_n let_v every_o one_o that_o name_n etc._n etc._n depart_v from_o iniquity_n but_o then_o observe_v the_o extent_n here_o let_v every_o
