it_o so_o wise_o and_o so_o well_o as_o they_o man_n will_v compass_v sea_n and_o land_n to_o make_v a_o proselyte_n and_o tare_n and_o weed_n be_v as_o much_o incline_v to_o propagation_n as_o the_o

though_o where_o by_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o the_o narrow_a creature_n man_n must_v lose_v and_o want_v that_o themselves_o which_o they_o communicate_v to_o other_o selfishness_n forbid_v such_o
