be_v he_o know_v himself_o to_o be_v infinite_o perfect_a and_o know_v himself_o to_o be_v so_o he_o love_v himself_o the_o term_n of_o his_o intellect_n be_v call_v the_o son_n as_o we_o call_v the_o

the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o follow_v since_o three_o substance_n can_v be_v in_o god_n because_o it_o will_v import_v three_o god_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n to_o reason_n
