so_o far_o from_o love_v the_o godly_a as_o that_o they_o hate_v no_o people_n in_o the_o world_n more_o a_o fearful_a sign_n of_o a_o bad_a estate_n second_o it_o may_v serve_v to_o reprove_v even_o

to_o god_n in_o that_o he_o have_v command_v all_o to_o love_v we_o and_o to_o encourage_v us._n we_o may_v just_o say_v with_o david_n lord_n what_o be_v man_n that_o thou_o thus_o regard_v he_o the_o truth_n be_v we_o deserve_v to_o be_v hate_v both_o of_o god_n and_o man_n therefore_o it_o be_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n not_o only_o to_o love_v we_o himself_o but_o also_o to_o

13.1.2.3_o show_v that_o if_o one_o do_v never_o so_o great_a thing_n yet_o if_o he_o have_v not_o charity_n it_o avail_v he_o nothing_o now_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a charity_n to_o be_v exercise_v
