sure_a that_o for_o all_o these_o thing_n god_n will_v bring_v thou_o to_o judgement_n that_o god_n shall_v bring_v to_o judgement_n every_o secret_a thing_n and_o now_o how_o sure_a and_o evident_a be_v these_o thing_n more_o sure_a and_o more_o plain_a if_o we_o will_v attend_v than_o any_o other_o truth_n in_o the_o world_n for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o know_a truth_n which_o do_v not_o

or_o the_o deduction_n of_o a_o proposition_n from_o some_o other_o therefore_o if_o we_o know_v any_o truth_n we_o presuppose_v that_o we_o have_v soul_n which_o understand_v the_o notion_n of_o
