the_o promise_n of_o the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o animate_v with_o this_o hope_n they_o desire_n death_n to_o enjoy_v they_o say_v with_o david_n in_o peace_n i_o will_v sleep_v 4.10_o psal_n 4.10_o and_o repose_v for_o thou_o o_o lord_n have_v singular_o confirm_v i_o in_o hope_n the_o second_o be_v that_o those_o holy_a man_n who_o have_v arrive_v by_o contemplation_n to_o see_v christ_n &_o his_o greateness_n &_o have_v taste_v the_o sweetness_n of_o eternal_a thing_n be_v forthwith_o weary_a of_o temporal_a as_o of_o thing_n vile_a and_o unworthy_a of_o their_o view_v and_o so_o they_o
