live_a soul_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o a_o live_a man_n or_o person_n and_o so_o it_o be_v evident_o mean_v when_o it_o be_v say_v so_o many_o soul_n come_v out_o of_o the_o loin_n of_o jacob_n as_o

according_a to_o the_o hebrew_n read_v be_v use_v to_o signify_v a_o dead_a body_n in_o levit._n 19.28_o numb_a 5.2_o and_o so_o it_o be_v right_o enough_o read_v here_o let_v i_o die_v etc._n etc._n

therefore_o we_o find_v a_o good_a man_n envious_a at_o the_o wicked_a upon_o that_o account_n because_o they_o have_v no_o band_n in_o their_o death_n nor_o be_v in_o plague_n as_o other_o man_n
