offering_n there_o and_o what_o be_v that_o but_o for_o the_o save_n of_o soul_n we_o may_v therefore_o concern_v christ_n well_o say_v as_o the_o elder_n in_o rev._n 5.9_o they_o sing_v a_o new_a song_n say_v thou_o be_v worthy_a etc._n etc._n for_o thou_o be_v slay_v and_o have_v redeem_v we_o to_o god_n by_o thy_o blood_n oh_o thou_o be_v worthy_a o_o bless_a saviour_n he_o do_v not_o say_v what_o but_o only_o thus_o thou_o be_v worthy_a to_o take_v the_o book_n and_o to_o open_v the_o seal_v thereof_o for_o thou_o be_v slay_v and_o have_v redeem_v we_o to_o god_n there_o be_v infinite_a
