they_o shall_v lose_v thereby_o their_o worldly_a honour_n riches_n possession_n and_o all_o their_o heart_n desire_n second_o another_o because_o of_o the_o painful_a disease_n &_o bitter_a pang_n which_o common_o man_n suffer_v either_o before_o or_o at_o the_o time_n of_o death_n but_o the_o chief_a cause_n above_o all_o other_o third_o be_v the_o dread_n of_o the_o miserable_a state_n of_o
