upon_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o although_o no_o quality_n be_v imprint_v before_o they_o come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n yet_o a_o relation_n be_v contract_v and_o then_o the_o

and_o if_o want_v of_o faith_n hinder_v not_o the_o jewish_a babe_n from_o enter_v into_o the_o covenant_n of_o faith_n than_o neither_o shall_v it_o hinder_v the_o christian_a babe_n and_o if_o
