have_v be_v finite_a in_o that_o it_o be_v create_v therefore_o it_o can_v not_o produce_v a_o infinite_a effect_n second_o if_o that_o tree_n have_v have_v a_o virtue_n to_o preserve_v man_n to_o eternity_n that_o virtue_n will_v have_v be_v useless_a because_o no_o man_n in_o the_o state_n of_o innocence_n shall_v have_v live_v for_o ever_o in_o this_o world_n but_o after_o a_o appoint_a

the_o radical_a moisture_n and_o the_o waste_a substance_n entire_a and_o by_o consequence_n can_v not_o preserve_v life_n to_o eternity_n §_o 4._o four_o though_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n may_v for_o
