little_a do_v such_o know_v what_o they_o do_v for_o now_o they_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n which_o do_v move_v they_o to_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o do_v refuse_v to_o accept_v of_o

and_o a_o little_a to_o press_v the_o other_o comparison_n use_v in_o this_o text_n if_o the_o people_n of_o god_n do_v so_o bewail_v the_o death_n of_o their_o worthy_a king_n josiah_n who_o yet_o

if_o all_o this_o have_v be_v do_v for_o i_o alone_o you_o say_v well_o if_o my_o heart_n be_v not_o altogether_o flinty_a and_o utter_o harden_v i_o can_v not_o but_o relent_v at_o the_o
