of_o a_o contract_n be_v the_o sweet_a covenant_n now_o in_o it_o there_o must_v be_v a_o consent_n on_o our_o part_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o spirit_n always_o stir_v up_o a_o amen_o on_o our_o part_n too_o when_o he_o say_v amen_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o then_o the_o soul_n say_v amen_o lord_n let_v it_o be_v so_o as_o in_o civil_a marriage_n there_o be_v a_o contract_n so_o

but_o it_o answ._n must_v be_v with_o a_o reservation_n that_o you_o may_v bring_v to_o heaven_n as_o many_o as_o you_o can_v that_o you_o may_v get_v further_a evidence_n of_o your_o salvation_n
