to_o visit_v wicked_a man_n for_o these_o thing_n and_o to_o own_o his_o own_o people_n as_o he_o do_v the_o israelite_n of_o old_a when_o he_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypt_n and_o to_o manifest_v

it_o will_v be_v requisite_a that_o i_o brief_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o condition_n the_o church_n before_o this_o time_n have_v be_v in_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v declare_v it_o in_o
