may_v begin_v in_o moses_n for_o before_o every_o man_n be_v king_n and_o prophet_n and_o priest_n in_o his_o own_o family_n it_o will_v appear_v that_o the_o first_o foundation_n of_o it_o be_v lay_v in_o inequality_n god_n then_o distinguish_v her_o attendant_n into_o three_o order_n or_o degree_n priest_n levite_n nethinim_n and_o above_o these_o a_o aaron_n as_o superintendent_n and_o
