be_v destroy_v the_o house_n will_v fall_v upon_o you_o i_o believe_v not_o that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n but_o i_o think_v it_o be_v expedient_a because_o the_o house_n be_v old_a he_o think_v it_o be_v of_o necessity_n and_o i_o think_v it_o expedient_a be_v there_o any_o cause_n of_o strife_n in_o this_o so_o put_v these_o together_o and_o see_v how_o we_o be_v delude_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o our_o own_o heart_n to_o make_v strife_n about_o a_o thing_n that_o may_v never_o be_v therefore_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n for_o it_o but_o that_o i_o may_v satisfy_v you_o a_o little_a

among_o they_o i_o think_v of_o all_o the_o contention_n that_o ever_o be_v among_o the_o saint_n from_o christ_n time_n till_o now_o there_o be_v never_o such_o a_o mystery_n in_o any_o contention_n as_o there_o be_v in_o this_o and_o but_o that_o i_o will_v not_o take_v up_o so_o much_o time_n i_o can_v go_v near_o to_o open_v this_o mystery_n how_o the_o devil_n and_o our_o own_o heart_n have_v get_v the_o strange_a mystery_n to_o set_v the_o saint_n together_o by_o the_o ear_n that_o ever_o be_v but_o i_o can_v stay_v upon_o that_o but_o if_o you_o ask_v i_o how_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v you_o know_v a_o little_a spark_n will_v bring_v a_o great_a flame_n a_o little_a contention_n be_v as_o the_o let_v out_o of_o water_n it_o be_v no_o wonder_n it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o
