we_o find_v this_o sequel_n and_o inference_n most_o clear_o and_o full_o lay_v down_o namely_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o rejoice_v most_o in_o the_o salvation_n that_o be_v most_o divine_a because_o

nearness_n to_o they_o and_o engagement_n for_o they_o which_o be_v the_o great_a national_a cause_n of_o rejoice_v in_o the_o world_n it_o be_v very_o much_o to_o have_v the_o lord_n once_o to_o
