will_v go_v with_o his_o most_o noble_a part_n and_o therefore_o first_o he_o apply_v himself_o to_o he_o upon_o that_o account_n for_o though_o his_o friend_n have_v faith_n enough_o as_o to_o the_o cure_n of_o the_o body_n yet_o he_o himself_o have_v little_a enough_o as_o to_o the_o cure_n of_o his_o soul_n therefore_o christ_n take_v he_o up_o as_o a_o man_n fall_v down_o say_v son_n be_v of_o
