to_o all_o our_o christian_a brethren_n in_o england_n which_o wait_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n increase_v of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n be_v multiply_v unto_o they_o with_o

and_o their_o foot_n shall_v stand_v in_o the_o gate_n of_o jerusalem_n we_o may_v note_v this_o that_o the_o lord_n now_o be_v with_o david_n after_o he_o have_v fear_v before_o his_o face_n and_o
