to_o a_o tee_fw-mi of_o the_o scripture_n and_o their_o own_o lie_a reason_n which_o be_v the_o devil_n in_o they_o all_o true_a christian_n be_v now_o under_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o holy_a

without_o their_o letter_n thou_o be_v immediate_o move_v to_o speak_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n as_o they_o be_v moreover_o though_o the_o scripture_n in_o themselves_o be_v true_a yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o death_n in_o they_o to_o a_o carnal_a spirit_n the_o letter_n kill_v but_o the_o spirit_n give_v life_n and_o can_v a_o dead_a and_o kill_a letter_n give_v the_o power_n to_o

the_o same_o way_n of_o silent_a meeting_n the_o same_o perfection_n and_o unerring_a light_n to_o guide_n move_v thereby_o immediate_o again_o they_o join_v like_a samson_n fox_n against_o the_o
