be_v faith_n help_v of_o it_o to_o believe_v what_o it_o can_v apprehend_v he_o that_o come_v unto_o god_n must_v believe_v he_o will_v never_o reach_v he_o else_o the_o understanding_n and_o knowledge_n can_v be_v stretch_v out_o to_o conceive_v high_a enough_o of_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o spirit_n create_v a_o addition_n which_o be_v faith_n help_v of_o the_o soul_n to_o believe_v what_o it_o can_v conceive_v as_o when_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v tell_v that_o she_o shall_v conceive_v and_o be_v be_v a_o son_n how_o can_v this_o be_v say_v she_o see_v i_o know_v nor_o a_o
