when_o he_o say_v the_o tree_n be_v on_o either_o side_n of_o the_o river_n whence_o by_o the_o way_n note_v yet_o again_o that_o both_o the_o water_n of_o life_n and_o also_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n they_o be_v both_o to_o be_v enjoy_v by_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o this_o city_n in_o the_o way_n of_o holiness_n the_o tree_n be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o street_n and_o the_o river_n run_v

and_o it_o be_v further_a evident_a that_o though_o he_o say_v all_o tree_n as_o if_o he_o mean_v many_o yet_o he_o speak_v but_o metaphorical_o to_o show_v thereby_o the_o fullness_n of_o christ_n because_o john_n do_v understand_v he_o so_o call_z it_o one_o tree_n to_o wit_n the_o tree_n of_o life_n but_o mark_v again_o so_o far_o as_o the_o river_n go_v so_o far_o the_o tree_n go_v so_o that_o where_o you_o can_v find_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n be_v sure_a there_o be_v none_o of_o the_o water_n of_o life_n no_o christ_n no_o grace_n he_o that_o have_v the_o son_n have_v life_n 36._o but_o he_o that_o have_v not_o the_o son_n shall_v not_o see_v 12._o life_n but_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v upon_o he_o for_o on_o either_o side_n of_o the_o river_n be_v there_o the_o tree_n
