to_o be_v derive_v from_o 12._o
how_o can_v this_o be_v but_o from_o divine_a inspiration_n when_o s._n john_n as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o far_o enough_o from_o skill_n in_o

perhaps_o his_o discovery_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o anti-numerus_a of_o the_o beast_n will_v have_v appear_v more_o evident_a and_o convince_a for_o though_o the_o number_n of_o the_o wall_n
