generation_n the_o reason_n be_v many_o 1._o reason_n 1_o because_o without_o this_o rough_a and_o round_a handle_n the_o conceit_a hypocrite_n the_o gloss_a gospeller_n the_o drowsy_a professor_n can_v be_v thorough_o convince_v much_o less_o awaken_v and_o convert_v when_o the_o preacher_n be_v like_o barnabas_n son_n of_o consolation_n and_o come_v with_o a_o soft_a and_o still_a voice_n they_o will_v mend_v no_o more_o than_o eli_n son_n they_o be_v so_o deadly_a asleep_a like_a epimenides_n in_o his_o cave_n or_o like_o jonah_n in_o the_o ship_n that_o a_o low_a voice_n lull_v

i_o think_v they_o that_o mislike_v such_o teacher_n be_v like_a to_o those_o sybarite_n in_o athenaeus_n who_o make_v a_o law_n that_o all_o the_o cock_n shall_v be_v banish_v those_o that_o speak_v

a_o kind_n of_o benumbedness_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o drowsiness_n a_o kind_n of_o spiritual_a pride_n and_o conceitednesse_n therefore_o for_o the_o find_v out_o and_o redress_n of_o these_o infirmity_n and_o fault_n they_o have_v need_n of_o daily_a and_o sound_a admonition_n and_o the_o more_o that_o faith_n be_v corrupt_v and_o manner_n infect_v the_o more_o need_n we_o have_v to_o
