condition_n of_o comprehend_v what_o be_v the_o breadth_n and_o length_n and_o depth_n and_o height_n of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n he_o do_v not_o speak_v of_o a_o full_a

now_o to_o put_v you_o into_o a_o capacity_n to_o comprehend_v these_o dimension_n of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n to_o comprehend_v they_o i_o say_v as_o they_o may_v be_v comprehend_v by_o you_o to_o your_o unspeakable_a comfort_n and_o joy_n you_o must_v be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o love_n but_o what_o be_v it_o to_o be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o love_n for_o this_o be_v the_o former_a question_n propound_v i_o answer_v some_o by_o the_o love_n here_o speak_v of_o wherein_o the_o apostle_n request_v of_o god_n that_o they_o may_v be_v root_v and_o ground_v understand_v the_o love_n

now_o to_o be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o any_o love_n whatsoever_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o make_v we_o able_a to_o comprehend_v in_o the_o sense_n late_o declare_v the_o same_o
