for_o my_o sake_n and_o not_o only_o create_v thing_n necessary_a to_o preserve_v my_o life_n but_o also_o many_o other_o for_o my_o delicacye_n and_o delight_n and_o for_o the_o recreation_n of_o

thou_o creat_v they_o for_o i_o that_o i_o may_v praise_v and_o serve_v thou_o with_o they_o 2._o and_o then_o i_o will_v ponder_v how_o well_o these_o creature_n complye_o with_o the_o end_n for_o

2.9_o oseae_n 2.9_o and_o his_o wine_n his_o flower_n and_o his_o woll_n from_o the_o servitude_n they_o be_v in_o under_o my_o possession_n use_v they_o against_o their_o inclination_n to_o offend_v their_o creator_n colloquy_n colloquy_n o_o most_o just_a creator_n how_o be_v it_o that_o thou_o do_v not_o justice_n upon_o he_o that_o so_o abuse_v thy_o creature_n use_v they_o against_o thou_o o_o my_o soul_n how_o be_v thou_o not_o confound_v with_o such_o treachery_n as_o this_o and_o how_o be_v thou_o not_o ashamed_a of_o this_o great_a baseness_n thou_o have_v commit_v abase_v thyself_o
