the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n he_o shall_v convince_v be_v that_o the_o spirit_n show_v we_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v embrace_v sanctification_n and_o serve_v the_o lord_n in_o all_o thing_n

indeed_o many_o time_n to_o satisfy_v our_o affection_n we_o love_v a_o thing_n too_o much_o though_o we_o do_v not_o think_v ourselves_o gainer_n thereby_o but_o in_o this_o matter_n the_o lord_n

that_o he_o shall_v best_o provide_v for_o himself_o every_o way_n by_o take_v christ_n he_o can_v choose_v but_o come_v in_o when_o he_o shall_v see_v it_o be_v best_o for_o he_o to_o go_v to_o the_o
