A85176	The new non-conformist; who having obtained help of God, doth persist unto this very day; witnessing, both to small and great, some of those glorious things which the Apostles, the prophets, & Moses, did say should come to pass. Or, the voice of a careful shepherd, crying from his watch-tower at W.C. unto his little flock at W.L. with a loud voice.	Feake, Christopher, fl. 1645-1660.	1654 (1654)	Wing F571; Thomason E737_1; ESTC R202090	39,800	63

my_o heart_n desire_v and_o prayer_n to_o god_n for_o you_o all_o be_v that_o as_o you_o have_v receive_v christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n so_o you_o may_v walk_v in_o he_o root_v and_o build_v up_o in_o
