thereby_o take_v occasion_n from_o the_o particular_a doctrine_n of_o his_o own_o suffering_n to_o gather_v a_o general_a conclusion_n that_o whosoever_o will_v be_v his_o disciple_n must_v also_o

for_o a_o time_n by_o avoid_v the_o cross_n be_v the_o next_o way_n to_o lose_v it_o eternal_o and_o so_o to_o encourage_v the_o rather_o to_o the_o undergo_n of_o affliction_n he_o affirm_v
