will_v make_v you_o cry_v out_o unto_o god_n why_o be_v thou_o become_v unto_o i_o as_o a_o enemy_n or_o as_o a_o liar_n and_o water_n that_o fail_v but_o if_o faith_n that_o noble_a interpreter_n

to_o live_v as_o a_o pilgrim_n and_o to_o declare_v plain_o that_o he_o seek_v a_o country_n and_o 3._o it_o do_v exceed_o help_v he_o forward_o in_o that_o bless_a work_n of_o wean_n of_o affection_n
