may_v thereby_o curb_v some_o sin_n and_o so_o drive_v the_o canaanite_n out_o of_o his_o own_o inheritance_n or_o else_o that_o he_o may_v give_v we_o scope_n to_o exercise_v the_o grace_n we_o have_v receive_v and_o so_o to_o make_v we_o more_o nimble_a and_o active_a more_o politic_a and_o experience_a against_o a_o great_a encounter_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o

no_o we_o shall_v pluck_v up_o our_o heart_n and_o cheer_v up_o our_o spirit_n know_v that_o the_o great_a of_o our_o adversary_n be_v but_o a_o object_n for_o we_o to_o show_v out_o valour_n upon_o and_o to_o make_v proof_n of_o our_o spiritual_a puissance_n why_o what_o care_v i_o how_o stout_a my_o adversary_n be_v what_o do_v i_o fear_v how_o strong_a a_o arm_n he_o have_v or_o what_o a_o

that_o god_n shall_v choose_v he_o out_o before_o many_o other_o as_o a_o special_a man_n to_o be_v a_o captain_n as_o it_o be_v and_o one_o of_o the_o worthy_n of_o israel_n to_o venture_v further_o
