come_v and_o i_o will_v speak_v with_o he_o of_o the_o mystery_n else_o let_v he_o leave_v my_o apprehension_n unreproved_a 36._o if_o he_o be_v a_o christian_a let_v he_o live_v in_o love_n towards_o a_o christian_a and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o gift_n which_o god_n give_v we_o one_o among_o another_o why_o do_v he_o brag_v and_o reproach_n so_o much_o that_o show_v he_o to_o be_v a_o proud_a man_n let_v he_o deal_v meek_o and_o i_o will_v meet_v he_o meek_o if_o he_o understand_v any_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o gift_n let_v he_o praise_n god_n and_o not_o contemn_v that_o which_o god_n

37._o be_v not_o that_o a_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o he_o will_v reprove_v the_o three_o principle_n and_o understand_v not_o out_o of_o what_o centre_n and_o understanding_n the_o spirit_n speak_v he_o will_v begin_v the_o first_o principle_n with_o the_o fire_n where_o then_o remain_v the_o centre_n out_o of_o which_o the_o fire_n originate_v 38._o let_v he_o tell_v i_o how_o the_o eternal_a
