though_o the_o dr._n say_v there_o be_v nothing_o like_o this_o any_o where_o else_o in_o scripture_n which_o be_v gratis_o dictum_fw-la yet_o other_o learned_a divine_n say_v that_o the_o apostle_n

hundred_o year_n ago_o to_o choose_v a_o king_n for_o i_o a._n i_o be_o afraid_a the_o dr._n next_o time_n will_v say_v that_o the_o law_n of_o former_a parliament_n make_v some_o year_n ago_o do_v
