though_o ma●y_v thing_n may_v be_v have_v out_o of_o the_o whole_a word_n of_o god_n which_o will_v much_o enlarge_v this_o discourse_n yet_o i_o shall_v that_o i_o may_v contract_v pick_v up_o the_o

of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a by_o the_o reunion_n of_o the_o same_o soul_n with_o the_o same_o body_n and_o so_o christ_n will_v bring_v the_o entire_a man_n with_o he_o at_o the_o
