break_v up_o for_o the_o faithful_a by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n yea_o very_o we_o have_v foolish_a fellow_n that_o will_v never_o cease_v to_o blaspheme_v the_o very_a god_n to_o make_v a_o mock_n of_o our_o hope_n and_o to_o say_v tush_o who_o do_v ever_o return_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o tell_v we_o whether_o there_o be_v a_o life_n in_o a_o other_o world_n after_o this_o or_o no_o and_o what_o kind_n of_o life_n it_o be_v because_o therefore_o we_o can_v find_v find_v that_o any_o man_n do_v ever_o return_v from_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v to_o be_v doubt_v of_o which_o these_o babbler_n do_v tattle_v touch_v the_o life_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v that_o the_o lord_n therefore_o may_v declare_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o after_o this_o life_n there_o be_v a_o

have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o shut_v in_o hell_n for_o sin_n now_o therefore_o in_o that_o christ_n rise_v alive_a again_o from_o the_o dead_a death_n can_v have_v no_o dominion_n over_o

the_o strength_n and_o power_n of_o they_o all_o be_v pure_o purge_v it_o be_v evident_a therefore_o that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v as_o it_o be_v certify_v and_o

unto_o everlasting_a life_n they_o gather_v therefore_o he_o have_v give_v his_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n to_o the_o faithful_a under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o meat_n and_o
