church_n be_v to_o she_o as_o sure_o a_o token_n of_o approach_a deliverance_n as_o the_o day_n star_n be_v a_o token_n of_o a_o approach_a morning_n that_o be_v the_o second_o the_o three_o part_n of_o this_o prophecy_n be_v the_o use_n or_o fruit_n which_o he_o do_v foretell_v shall_v be_v make_v of_o this_o great_a work_n of_o god_n raise_v and_o build_v up_o of_o zion_n which_o be_v very_o
