the_o virtue_n thereof_o endure_v for_o ever_o 10.14_o we_o people_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n have_v neither_o need_n of_o legal_a priest_n nor_o yet_o of_o popish_a mass_a priest_n who_o can_v

his_o own_o knowledge_n or_o of_o mere_a ignorance_n as_o not_o know_v what_o the_o father_n write_v the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a contention_n to_o strive_v for_o the_o
