day_n wherein_o we_o be_v be_v as_o forerunner_n of_o that_o bless_a day_n the_o which_o will_v not_o tarry_v long_o after_o and_o i_o think_v that_o the_o cause_n that_o i_o have_v to_o hope_v so_o

appease_v without_o great_a change_n &_o alteration_n of_o kingdom_n to_o conclude_v that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n shine_v now_o wonderful_o the_o which_o common_o be_v wont_a to_o bring_v
