the_o invisible_a might_n this_o mystery_n be_v a_o pledge_n and_o a_o figure_n christ_n body_n be_v truth_n itself_o this_o pledge_n we_o do_v keep_v mystical_o until_o that_o we_o be_v come_v unto_o

we_o will_v before_o have_v entreat_v of_o the_o lamb_n which_o the_o old_a israelite_n offer_v at_o their_o easter_n time_n but_o that_o we_o desire_v first_o to_o declare_v unto_o you_o of_o this_o
