image_n part_v whereof_o be_v a_o dominion_n over_o the_o creation_n so_o in_o our_o nature_n he_o honour_v some_o person_n with_o his_o name_n and_o have_v thereby_o give_v they_o dominion_n over_o

therefore_o of_o that_o sense_n in_o which_o they_o be_v style_v god_n and_o son_n of_o god_n we_o must_v consider_v that_o it_o be_v familiar_a in_o scripture_n to_o call_v a_o person_n the_o son_n
