god_n so_o we_o have_v nothing_o of_o qualification_n which_o shall_v lift_v we_o up_o before_o he_o hence_o we_o may_v determine_v humility_n to_o be_v a_o necessary_a ingredient_n in_o our_o

to_o obtain_v any_o thing_n from_o he_o hence_o the_o godly_a be_v the_o proper_a orator_n at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n for_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n they_o have_v access_n to_o god_n so_o
