these_o holy_a thing_n be_v no_o deaf_a adder_n but_o only_o such_o which_o by_o god_n election_n do_v belong_v to_o god_n and_o by_o the_o covenant_n which_o they_o make_v and_o hold_v and_o by_o

reason_n to_o prove_v her_o plague_n to_o be_v certain_a be_v the_o diligence_n that_o god_n now_o use_v in_o lay_v together_o her_o fault_n that_o she_o may_v receive_v for_o every_o one_o of_o
