of_o the_o bless_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n a._o he_o be_v then_o to_o meditate_v how_o that_o 15_o god_n the_o father_n out_o of_o his_o mere_a love_n to_o mankind_n do_v set_v apart_o

to_o bring_v we_o to_o glory_n q_o what_o be_v he_o to_o meditate_v on_o when_o he_o see_v the_o minister_n to_o break_v the_o bread_n and_o to_o pour_v out_o the_o wine_n a._o he_o be_v then_o to_o
