everlasting_a covenant_n through_o which_o he_o seek_v his_o petition_n to_o be_v grant_v than_o 1._o it_o be_v christ_n blood_n which_o have_v ratify_v the_o covenant_n and_o establish_v our_o

that_o which_o be_v well-pleasing_a in_o his_o sight_n even_o through_o jesus_n christ_n than_o 1._o it_o be_v not_o by_o any_o strength_n of_o our_o own_o where-by_a good_a work_n be_v wrought_v but_o even_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n work_v in_o we_o graciouslie_o 2._o it_o be_v through_o jesus_n christ_n that_o this_o work_n be_v procure_v convey_v unto_o we_o and_o make_v acceptable_a
