brief_o by_o these_o two_o reason_n first_o because_o s._n paul_n so_o teach_v we_o when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o suffering_n of_o this_o life_n 1â—_n be_v not_o worthy_a of_o the_o glory_n to_o

his_o holy_a nun_n moonke_n and_o jesuite_n and_o flee_v to_o heaven_n as_o a_o bird_n without_o feather_n i_o say_v three_o that_o the_o want_n whereof_o the_o apostle_n speak_v be_v not_o in_o the_o
