beget_v nor_o beget_v any_o other_o number_n there_o can_v be_v no_o emblem_n of_o god_n answer_v the_o spirit_n for_o if_o we_o do_v not_o know_v what_o god_n be_v how_o can_v we_o make_v a_o emblem_n of_o he_o nor_o be_v there_o any_o number_n in_o god_n for_o god_n be_v the_o perfection_n himself_o but_o number_n be_v imperfect_a and_o as_o for_o the_o beget_n of_o number_n it_o be_v
