only_o occasional_o make_v use_n of_o there_o be_v a_o wide_a difference_n between_o the_o occasional_a use_n of_o a_o thing_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o similitude_n or_o comparison_n and_o the_o

only_o the_o truth_n and_o mind_n of_o god_n be_v the_o scope_n and_o matter_n of_o it_o but_o whereof_o god_n himself_o be_v the_o author_n as_o in_o the_o four_o evangelist_n we_o read_v of_o the_o
