our_o life_n ought_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o this_o mark_n as_o even_o now_o we_o have_v touch_v y_o to_o we_o bless_v god_n and_o render_v witness_n that_o his_o benefit_n be_v not_o cast_v away_o

to_o show_v a_o agreement_n of_o their_o faith_n each_o one_o of_o they_o can_v right_v well_o praise_n god_n by_o himself_o &_o yet_o it_o mean_v not_o that_o they_o be_v gather_v together_o in_o
