must_v be_v open_v namely_o what_o be_v adultery_n here_o forbid_v adultery_n proper_o be_v the_o breach_n of_o wedlock_n adultery_n by_o such_o party_n some_o one_o whereof_o at_o the_o least_o be_v

though_o they_o will_v easy_o dispense_v with_o 6._o disobedience_n to_o parent_n yet_o the_o woman_n take_v in_o adultery_n must_v be_v put_v to_o death_n john_n 8._o 4_o 5._o the_o greatness_n of_o
