in_o this_o point_n he_o have_v not_o only_o give_v they_o direction_n about_o it_o but_o encourage_v they_o in_o it_o and_o we_o know_v the_o word_n encouragement_n be_v a_o very_a entensive_a one_o as_o include_v not_o only_a promise_n to_o assist_v but_o mean_n and_o power_n to_o bring_v about_o and_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o doubt_v but_o king_n james_n though_o he_o think_v not_o
