this_o here_o now_o present_a in_o the_o text_n it_o be_v one_o among_o the_o rest_n the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n what_o be_v the_o use_n which_o we_o now_o from_o hence_o be_v to_o make_v of_o it_o but_o according_o to_o be_v wrought_v upon_o by_o it_o and_o to_o be_v persuade_v of_o it_o see_v the_o apostle_n use_v this_o argument_n whereby_o to_o persuade_v you_o therefore_o to_o comply_v

the_o first_o general_n part_n of_o the_o text_n which_o be_v a_o account_n of_o the_o ministerial_a dispensation_n in_o reference_n to_o their_o performance_n in_o these_o word_n know_v therefore_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o persuade_v etc._n etc._n the_o second_o be_v in_o reference_n to_o their_o acceptance_n in_o these_o word_n but_o we_o be_v make_v manifest_a to_o god_n and_o i_o

of_o corinth_n against_o that_o which_o st._n paul_n have_v here_o speak_v concern_v himself_o and_o his_o companion_n and_o fellow-labourer_n in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n it_o be_v true_a

this_o the_o apostle_n answer_v very_o sober_o and_o grave_o and_o discreet_o but_o we_o be_v make_v manifest_a to_o god_n and_o i_o trust_v also_o be_v make_v etc._n etc._n where_o he_o give_v a_o
