be_v thus_o with_o we_o that_o we_o be_v all_o prodigal_n and_o have_v go_v out_o and_o be_v in_o a_o very_a dangerous_a way_n here_o lie_v the_o fear_n now_o whether_o truth_n will_v look_v upon_o

that_o be_v all_o our_o case_n will_v be_v the_o same_o with_o judas_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o three_o cause_n why_o this_o famine_n be_v come_v 1._o as_o a_o judgement_n 2._o to_o show_v we_o that_o no_o enlargement_n no_o increase_n of_o truth_n grow_v in_o that_o country_n 3._o to_o pinch_v the_o soul_n home_o to_o its_o father_n he_o must_v find_v no_o rest_n he_o must_v have_v no_o bread_n

two_o thief_n be_v crucify_v with_o christ_n the_o one_o be_v save_v the_o other_o leave_v therefore_o consider_v though_o you_o be_v all_o sinner_n together_o you_o do_v know_v whether_o you_o
