much_o as_o thou_o can_v every_o part_n must_v serve_v to_o god_n love_n that_o we_o may_v love_v god_n not_o only_o give_v we_o but_o also_o severe_o correct_v we_o and_o deny_v we_o that_o which_o

there_o can_v be_v no_o cause_n in_o god_n of_o any_o hatred_n towards_o he_o because_o the_o only_a chief_a and_o true_a good_a can_v be_v the_o proper_a object_n of_o hatred_n nor_o can_v the_o
