these_o sin_n and_o so_o know_v they_o as_o motive_n and_o provocation_n to_o inflict_v such_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o and_o if_o god_n do_v punish_v they_o for_o they_o certain_o god_n do_v now_o remember_v they_o and_o what_o of_o all_o this_o be_v it_o a_o truth_n that_o god_n have_v speak_v your_o iniquity_n and_o your_o sin_n will_v i_o remember_v no_o more_o then_o sure_o whatsoever_o
