now_o although_o his_o life_n be_v thus_o glorious_a when_o you_o come_v to_o his_o death_n this_o be_v all_o that_o be_v say_v of_o he_o then_o abraham_n give_v up_o the_o ghost_n and_o die_v in_o

though_o he_o have_v no_o mind_n at_o all_o to_o bless_v he_o he_o give_v his_o due_a show_v he_o that_o the_o right_a of_o primogeniture_n belong_v unto_o he_o if_o he_o have_v not_o forfeit_v it_o thou_o be_v my_o first_o bear_v my_o might_n and_o the_o beginning_n of_o my_o strength_n for_o this_o reason_n god_n command_v that_o the_o first_o bear_v shall_v have_v a_o double_a portion_n and_o
