call_v happiness_n consist_v of_o thing_n temporal_a but_o that_o which_o be_v true_a blessedness_n once_o have_v we_o can_v lose_v ●_o because_o it_o be_v in_o the_o vision_n and_o fruition_n of_o

now_o we_o must_v know_v that_o though_o there_o be_v but_o one_o true_a blessedness_n in_o the_o conjunction_n with_o god_n the_o only_a fountain_n thereof_o yet_o have_v it_o two_o state_n in_o
