especial_o seat_v in_o the_o affection_n and_o they_o have_v sweet_a and_o strong_a affection_n 2_o likewise_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o weakness_n and_o god_n delight_v to_o show_v his_o strength_n in_o weakness_n 3_o and_o three_o especial_o child_n bearing-woman_n bring_v other_o into_o this_o life_n with_o danger_n of_o their_o own_o therefore_o they_o be_v force_v to_o a_o near_a communion_n

oh_o yes_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v as_o a_o grain_n of_o mustard_n seed_n small_a in_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v so_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o church_n itself_o and_o in_o regard_n of_o
