and_o yet_o the_o mercy_n come_v oh_o say_v a_o soul_n now_o i_o see_v that_o god_n be_v a_o live_a god_n hereby_o the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v make_v know_v he_o must_v needs_o be_v great_a in_o

with_o believer_n the_o child_n of_o abraham_n that_o they_o may_v learn_v more_o to_o trust_v unto_o he_o to_o trust_v unto_o god_n alone_o you_o know_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o

upon_o the_o mean_n a_o widow_n that_o be_v desolate_a trust_v in_o god_n when_o desolation_n come_v upon_o the_o mean_n than_o we_o learn_v for_o to_o trust_v in_o god_n one_o that_o do_v learn_v
