the_o use_n we_o make_v of_o picture_n or_o image_n be_v pure_o as_o representative_n or_o that_o we_o may_v use_v his_o term_n memorative_a sign_n which_o call_v the_o original_n to_o our_o

to_o offer_v incense_n to_o he_o who_o die_v upon_o the_o cross_n for_o our_o redemption_n we_o fix_v our_o eye_n upon_o and_o burn_v incense_n before_o the_o crucifix_n which_o represent_v he_o not_o
