of_o the_o miracle_n do_v by_o he_o be_v it_o perhaps_o for_o that_o they_o be_v strange_a and_o not_o according_a to_o man_n reason_n or_o use_v of_o thing_n that_o fall_v out_o ordinary_o in_o the_o

have_v he_o any_o testimony_n of_o author_n that_o avow_v the_o contrary_a and_o affirm_v that_o they_o be_v not_o true_a this_o i_o presume_v he_o can_v say_v whereas_o we_o on_o the_o other_o side_n
