such_o love_n as_o that_o which_o christ_n show_v to_o the_o world_n and_o be_v there_o ever_o any_o carriage_n so_o unworthy_a and_o so_o unsufferable_a as_o that_o which_o christ_n receive_v from_o the_o world_n we_o have_v the_o type_n of_o this_o in_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n you_o know_v god_n do_v wonderful_o for_o that_o people_n bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypt_n by_o a_o out_o
