to_o be_v afraid_a to_o sin_n that_o he_o may_v be_v fear_v or_o if_o we_o have_v sin_v to_o make_v we_o present_o to_o forsake_v our_o sin_n and_o to_o be_v sorrowful_a for_o our_o offence_n for_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n lead_v we_o to_o repentance_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o herein_o be_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o wicked_a and_o the_o godly_a man_n application_n of_o god_n

as_o his_o sole_a encouragement_n to_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n and_o thereby_o he_o heap_v unto_o himself_o wrath_n against_o the_o day_n of_o wrath_n because_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v mercy_n
