this_o day_n seem_v to_o have_v lose_v that_o noble_a spirit_n that_o be_v in_o their_o ancestor_n who_o for_o christ_n sake_n love_v not_o their_o life_n unto_o death_n yet_o sure_o this_o

be_v so_o for_o if_o when_o but_o a_o member_n suffer_v in_o the_o natural_a body_n all_o the_o member_n suffer_v with_o it_o then_o sure_o when_o not_o a_o member_n only_o but_o a_o principal_a
