the_o fish_n which_o receive_v jonas_n for_o so_o much_o that_o say_n that_o god_n prepare_v a_o fish_n seem_v to_o infer_v for_o if_o the_o fish_n have_v at_o that_o time_n swim_v in_o the_o sea_n the_o prophet_n may_v have_v use_v another_o word_n as_o thus_o the_o lord_n cause_v that_o the_o fish_n shall_v occur_v or_o the_o lord_n send_v a_o fish_n for_o so_o the_o scripture_n be_v wont_v to_o speak_v but_o here_o the_o fish_n be_v say_v to_o be_v prepare_v but_o this_o doubt_n may_v be_v resolve_v thus_o that_o although_o god_n create_v not_o the_o fish_n at_o that_o time_n yet_o do_v he_o dispose_v the_o same_o to_o this_o use_n because_o we_o know_v that_o this_o be_v not_o do_v natural_o that_o a_o fish_n shall_v swallow_v jonas_n rondelerus_n and_o again_o shall_v three_o day_n
