thence_o and_o from_o his_o own_o word_n partly_o the_o question_n in_o hand_n between_o we_o as_o far_o as_o concern_v the_o first_o proposition_n i_o be_o now_o to_o proceed_v to_o his_o own_o

the_o formal_a will_n of_o god_n who_o cloud_n and_o pillar_n be_v by_o day_n and_o night_n over_o their_o head_n and_o who_o many_o miracle_n have_v continual_o ratify_v the_o authority_n of_o
