the_o lord_n in_o person_n will_v be_v but_o a_o chill_a trifle_n and_o his_o reader_n may_v catch_v a_o ague_n the_o while_n but_o if_o we_o shall_v supply_v the_o grammatical_a ellipsis_n regular_o and_o as_o we_o must_v in_o the_o same_o tense_n all_o will_v be_v then_o clear_a for_o we_o can_v supply_v it_o thus_o to_o the_o rest_n i_o speak_v the_o lord_n speak_v not_o but_o i_o speak_v the_o lord_n speak_v not_o if_o then_o the_o lord_n neither_o speak_v in_o person_n nor_o speak_v it_o now_o the_o apostle_n testify_v both_o it_o follow_v due_o that_o this_o can_v be_v no_o command_n forsooth_o the_o fear_n be_v lest_o this_o not_o be_v a_o command_n will_v prove_v a_o evangelic_a counsel_n &_o so_o make_v way_n for_o supererogation_n as_o if_o the_o apostle_n can_v not_o speak_v

among_o other_o word_n have_v these_o that_o when_o paul_n speak_v as_o a_o apostle_n he_o use_v this_o form_n the_o lord_n say_v not_o i_o five_o 10._o but_o as_o a_o private_a man_n he_o say_v i_o

not_o to_o thrust_v out_o a_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n by_o a_o new_a one_o of_o his_o own_o as_o one_o nail_n drive_v another_o but_o to_o release_v we_o from_o the_o rigour_n of_o it_o by_o the_o
