into_o the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n it_o will_v be_v a_o hard_a matter_n for_o the_o covetous_a man_n who_o heart_n have_v be_v long_o imprison_v within_o the_o wall_n of_o covetousness_n to_o

to_o ourselves_o and_o keep_v our_o soul_n diligent_o in_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n because_o that_o have_v once_o wander_v out_o of_o the_o right_a way_n we_o can_v with_o facility_n return_v into_o it_o again_o 4_o rea._n four_o we_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o keep_v our_o soul_n diligent_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o miserable_a and_o wretched_a condition_n of_o the_o lose_a soul_n certain_o have_v i_o the_o tongue_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n i_o can_v not_o relate_v unto_o you_o the_o woeful_a condition_n of_o the_o lose_a soul_n but_o this_o be_v that_o which_o aggravate_v
