ability_n plentiful_o as_o christ_n have_v show_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o love_n to_o she_o in_o forgive_a so_o she_o endeavour_v to_o express_v the_o largeness_n of_o she_o in_o give_v and_o as_o she_o have_v much_o forgive_v so_o she_o show_v by_o her_o present_a that_o she_o love_v much_o she_o give_v not_o by_o drop_n but_o shower_v it_o down_o in_o stream_n and_o as_o she_o have_v
