Anyone Have a Complete List of Definitions for Sadlier-Oxford Vocabulary Workshop Level F?

I have the book with the definitions, but I would really like to have all of the words in one document if I could. I found a list of all of the words on their website, but I would be helpful to have all them paired with the definitions. Thank you very much for your help!
