to_o take_v it_o from_o one_o thief_n to_o bestow_v it_o on_o a_o other_o robber_n seem_v a_o thing_n very_o straight_o and_o hard_o for_o that_o in_o the_o world_n there_o can_v be_v nothing_o

and_o secret_a judgement_n of_o god_n see_v that_o in_o recompense_n of_o a_o few_o transitory_a year_n wherein_o the_o thief_n be_v a_o sinner_n in_o the_o world_n the_o lord_n be_v content_a to_o
