supplication_n to_o a_o prince_n and_o not_o understand_v what_o be_v contain_v in_o his_o supplication_n much_o less_o shall_v he_o do_v it_o to_o the_o king_n of_o king_n unless_o he_o look_v to_o

be_v it_o not_o absurd_a when_o thou_o have_v the_o king_n elder_a and_o dear_a son_n to_o be_v thy_o mediator_n to_o his_o father_n to_o request_v some_o mean_a person_n of_o the_o court_n to_o be_v thy_o mediator_n also_o as_o if_o the_o mediation_n of_o such_o a_o person_n be_v not_o sufficient_a so_o be_v it_o far_o more_o absurd_a to_o join_v the_o saint_n to_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o worâ—e_n of_o mediation_n whereas_o his_o intercession_n with_o the_o father_n be_v 10000000000_o time_n more_o respect_v of_o god_n then_o be_v the_o intercession_n of_o all_o angel_n and_o

towards_o his_o faithful_a and_o obedient_a child_n great_a than_o be_v the_o love_n of_o any_o earthly_a father_n to_o his_o and_o will_v not_o a_o earthly_a father_n who_o have_v declare_v his_o

to_o this_o end_n to_o testify_v unto_o they_o the_o unsearchable_a riches_n of_o his_o goodness_n towards_o they_o and_o to_o give_v they_o full_a assurance_n of_o his_o unspeakable_a love_n and_o

before_o the_o care_n of_o building_n of_o their_o own_o house_n and_o that_o our_o wise_a solomon_n will_v not_o only_o have_v a_o care_n first_o to_o build_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n before_o the_o
