their_o supernatural_a knowledge_n be_v wonderful_o obscure_v for_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o very_a many_o thing_n which_o if_o they_o have_v not_o fall_v they_o shall_v have_v know_v yet_o be_v

who_o servant_n the_o apostle_n be_v but_o because_o such_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o gospel_n though_o fruitless_a and_o dead_a can_v proceed_v from_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o only_o from_o divine_a revelation_n either_o by_o good_a angel_n or_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o god_n power_n and_o providence_n manifest_v to_o they_o therefore_o we_o cease_v further_a to_o speak_v
