indeed_o can_v you_o love_v that_o his_o glory_n be_v uphold_v during_o your_o own_o time_n and_o not_o love_v the_o continuance_n of_o it_o to_o the_o world_n end_n and_o such_o be_v the_o love_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o scripture_n last_o to_o the_o praise_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n say_v they_o we_o will_v show_v forth_o thy_o praise_n to_o all_o generation_n and_o therefore_o 1._o
