all_o these_o we_o have_v and_o yet_o help_n come_v not_o true_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o we_o despise_v disregard_n and_o reject_v they_o all_o for_o prayer_n here_o be_v scold_v for_o heal_v

think_v not_o it_o be_v with_o we_o as_o with_o a_o diamond_n which_o lie_v in_o the_o fire_n and_o be_v not_o consume_v or_o like_o the_o christiall_z which_o touch_v the_o toad_n and_o be_v not_o
