obtain_n of_o a_o end_n which_o he_o design_v in_o it_o he_o quote_v in_o this_o chapter_n the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n zechariah_n say_v tell_v you_o the_o daughter_n of_o zion_n behold_v thy_o

these_o two_o relation_n will_v find_v a_o great_a difference_n and_o even_o a_o incompatibility_n between_o they_o for_o that_o if_o mary_n magdelene_n have_v see_v the_o angel_n discourse_v of_o
