of_o god_n or_o no_o for_o it_o be_v say_v by_o some_o ignorant_o that_o a_o great_a part_n of_o mankind_n have_v never_o have_v any_o such_o divine_a working_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n upon_o

whether_o you_o have_v have_v such_o divine_a touch_v working_n and_o operation_n upon_o your_o heart_n as_o have_v incline_v you_o to_o seek_v the_o lord_n i_o hope_v i_o may_v believ_n there_o be_v
