it_o be_v descend_v to_o wit_n only_o from_o this_o vanity_n the_o prophet_n david_n likewise_o use_v the_o very_a same_o word_n in_o the_o very_a same_o sense_n for_o he_o say_v that_o man_n be_v like_a to_o vanity_n because_o his_o day_n vanish_v like_o a_o shadow_n 144.4_o and_o all_o the_o old_a translation_n as_o saint_n jerom_n observe_v except_o only_o the_o septuagint_n to_o
