that_o the_o year_n have_v not_o twelve_o month_n or_o the_o month_n but_o three_o day_n gen._n 7_o which_o be_v a_o abuse_n because_o the_o same_o text_n of_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o general_a

of_o this_o opinion_n but_o what_o we_o see_v that_o in_o greece_n even_o at_o athens_n this_o tenebrosity_n be_v see_v which_o make_v i_o believe_v that_o this_o eclipse_n be_v universal_a over_o
