before_o another_o opportunity_n this_o must_v needs_o make_v minister_n labour_v earnest_o for_o the_o salvation_n of_o their_o people_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n for_o a_o minister_n to_o preach_v and_o pray_v and_o administer_v sacrament_n and_o live_v as_o if_o he_o see_v god_n and_o christ_n and_o angel_n and_o devil_n and_o death_n and_o judgement_n look_v he_o in_o
