well_o be_v know_v how_o short_a our_o time_n be_v in_o this_o sort_n i_o say_v the_o shortneste_a of_o our_o time_n may_v be_v know_v by_o those_o various_a metaphor_n similitude_n or_o comparison_n wherewith_o in_o the_o follow_a scripture_n man_n his_o life_n &_o day_n be_v set_v forth_o in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n job._n 7.6_o 7._o &_o 9.25_o 26._o psal_n 38.39_o &_o 103.15_o 16._o 144_o 4._o

psal_n 39.5_o because_o that_o scripture_n come_v very_o near_o to_o the_o metaphor_n which_o paul_n use_v in_o the_o text_n there_o we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v roll_v up_o our_o time_n so_o
