the_o thing_n be_v come_v to_o pass_v every_o one_o may_v clear_o see_v that_o he_o pretend_v to_o prophecy_n that_o particular_a thing_n and_o beside_o he_o do_v sometime_o deliver_v the_o thing_n in_o so_o obscure_a term_n that_o without_o a_o peculiar_a genius_n it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a to_o understand_v it_o the_o second_o be_v that_o though_o the_o prophecy_n be_v true_a in_o
