mollify_v those_o heart_n which_o be_v full_o fraught_v with_o cruelty_n think_v oh_o my_o soul_n thou_o do_v hear_v pilate_n that_o unjust_a and_o wrongful_a judge_n utter_v these_o or_o the_o like_a

yet_o you_o suppose_v that_o all_o those_o torment_n be_v too_o little_a and_o nothing_o too_o much_o which_o be_v unjust_o do_v to_o that_o innocent_a lamb_n who_o open_v not_o his_o mouth_n once_o
