may_v be_v see_v to_o be_v bondage_n to_o the_o god_n &_o spirit_n of_o this_o world_n whereby_o the_o unfaithful_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n be_v veil_v and_o so_o keep_v not_o clear_v nor_o

see_v you_o be_v call_v with_o a_o holy_a call_v unto_o liberty_n let_v none_o use_v it_o as_o a_o occasion_n to_o the_o flesh_n let_v not_o the_o liberty_n you_o use_v be_v fleshly_a but_o

who_o they_o ought_v to_o cherish_v and_o condescend_v unto_o now_o say_v the_o apostle_n i_o will_v have_v no_o man_n to_o think_v of_o himself_o otherways_o than_o what_o be_v meet_v but_o every_o
