reason_n suggest_v to_o they_o under_o some_o providence_n or_o other_o that_o disquiet_v their_o spirit_n it_o be_v through_o the_o suggestion_n of_o sense_n and_o reason_n that_o zachartas_n

and_o therefore_o say_v moses_n from_o the_o lord_n israel_n stand_v still_o and_o see_v the_o salvation_n of_o god_n now_o let_v not_o your_o eye_n be_v upon_o the_o second_o cause_n but_o upon_o
