may_v be_v the_o same_o when_o the_o law_n be_v not_o the_o same_o mr._n coppinger_n as_o to_o your_o first_o instance_n namely_o that_o the_o seven_o year_n be_v command_v for_o a_o mora_n reason_n

the_o reason_n of_o the_o law_n remain_v which_o be_v give_v to_o israel_n for_o sanctify_v the_o priest_n second_o you_o say_v that_o the_o law_n remain_v that_o we_o must_v sanctify_v god_n
