therefore_o no_o doubt_n but_o the_o clear_a sight_n garden_n the_o cause_n of_o christ_n his_o agony_n in_o the_o garden_n and_o the_o deep_a consideration_n of_o that_o cup_n which_o he_o be_v so_o

determine_v for_o some_o think_v this_o prayer_n this_o fear_n this_o agony_n proceed_v only_o from_o the_o weakness_n of_o his_o humanity_n that_o be_v now_o though_o not_o disunited_n yet_o unassi_v of_o the_o deity_n and_o that_o they_o be_v chief_o effect_v through_o the_o fear_n of_o that_o death_n which_o so_o near_o approach_v and_o therefore_o though_o they_o be_v utter_v as_o proceed_v
