by_o the_o heavenly_a income_n of_o his_o eternal_a brightness_n may_v in_o some_o measure_n see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n in_o heaven_n when_o he_o appear_v

they_o may_v have_v no_o confidence_n in_o the_o strength_n of_o that_o light_n which_o be_v within_o they_o but_o that_o they_o may_v cast_v down_o the_o crown_n of_o their_o spiritual_a confidence_n
