they_o shall_v make_v a_o relic_n of_o it_o it_o be_v think_v needful_a also_o to_o veil_v his_o glory_n with_o a_o humble_v expression_n that_o none_o may_v take_v he_o for_o god_n but_o for_o a_o

2.13_o look_v for_o the_o glorious_a appear_v of_o the_o great_a god_n and_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n we_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n here_o that_o in_o that_o short_a epistle_n which_o st._n

who_o the_o scripture_n common_o call_v god_n how_o be_v it_o then_o i_o say_v that_o st._n paul_n in_o this_o short_a epistle_n bestow_v this_o name_n three_o or_o four_o time_n upon_o our_o
