of_o the_o soul_n that_o they_o can_v be_v possess_v together_o with_o the_o bless_a assurance_n of_o better_a thing_n but_o with_o the_o affection_n of_o stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n this_o follow_v

with_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n at_o the_o same_o time_n his_o soul_n look_v to_o thing_n below_o must_v needs_o apprehend_v they_o to_o be_v little_a in_o quantity_n as_o indeed_o they_o be_v if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o body_n lift_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o shall_v look_v upon_o the_o earth_n what_o be_v the_o earth_n but_o a_o pooresilly_a point_n the_o whole_a earth_n i●…_n self_n much_o more_o
