and_o great_a benefactor_n i_o shall_v be_v afraid_a of_o a_o disorderly_a thought_n o_o let_v i_o never_o judge_v of_o sin_n any_o more_o by_o the_o sickly_a fancy_n of_o carnal_a man_n but_o by_o the_o holiness_n of_o thy_o nature_n and_o as_o thou_o my_o god_n who_o have_v call_v i_o be_v holy_a so_o let_v i_o be_v holy_a in_o all_o manner_n of_o conversation_n o_o let_v i_o not_o dally_v
