when_o with_o one_o hand_n the_o lord_n shall_v hold_v they_o up_o in_o hell_n and_o lift_v up_o the_o other_o as_o high_a as_o heaven_n to_o give_v they_o redouble_v stroke_n of_o everlasting_a

brief_o to_o be_v touch_v upon_o here_o first_o that_o god_n be_v intimate_o present_a with_o the_o creature_n he_o pass_v through_o their_o very_a being_n and_o inward_a part_n he_o be_v in_o the_o
