other_o for_o devotion_n of_o all_o sort_n some_o and_o of_o all_o these_o sort_n she_o make_v some_o use_n but_o of_o all_o book_n for_o constant_a use_n and_o practice_n she_o prefer_v the_o bible_n tell_v i_o often_o that_o other_o book_n have_v their_o use_n and_o delight_n till_o with_o often_o read_v they_o become_v more_o ordinary_a and_o then_o they_o seem_v to_o lose_v of_o their_o
