with_o worldly_a sorrow_n that_o work_v death_n but_o if_o we_o mingle_v a_o few_o tear_n for_o sin_n and_o our_o unkindness_n to_o christ_n with_o those_o tear_n then_o they_o will_v refresh_v we_o we_o get_v by_o loss_n in_o our_o outward_a estate_n when_o they_o lead_v we_o to_o look_v to_o the_o loss_n and_o repair_v the_o breach_n of_o our_o spiritual_a estate_n no_o question_n but_o job_n
