and_o mortal_a even_o weak_a die_a flesh_n enfeeble_v in_o his_o ability_n and_o operation_n both_o of_o body_n and_o mind_n be_v not_o in_o that_o regard_n sinful_a for_o then_o the_o son_n of_o

all_o that_o defile_v a_o man_n be_v from_o within_o from_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n from_o these_o good_a heart_n of_o we_o come_v all_o wickedness_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n teach_v
