that_o these_o thing_n or_o some_o of_o they_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v thus_o necessary_o and_o precise_o until_o there_o be_v christian_n prince_n and_o peace_n in_o the_o church_n but_o the_o print_n be_v deep_a than_o that_o it_o will_v be_v so_o wash_v away_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v what_o he_o say_v in_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o the_o sentence_n where_o he_o charge_v timothy_n and_o in_o he_o all_o that_o he_o shall_v keep_v all_o these_o thing_n not_o until_o the_o time_n of_o peace_n or_o to_o the_o time_n of_o christian_n prince_n but_o even_o until_o
