again_o second_o we_o may_v know_v that_o we_o have_v taste_v christ_n and_o feed_v on_o he_o and_o on_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o be_v by_o he_o when_o we_o be_v strengthen_v by_o our_o feed_n when_o we_o be_v strengthen_v to_o duty_n strengthen_v against_o tentation_n and_o against_o corruption_n thou_o say_v thou_o believe_v on_o christ_n and_o have_v make_v he_o thou_o own_o what_o

heavenly_a manna_n the_o soul_n that_o feed_v on_o christ_n be_v strengthen_v from_o spiritual_a reason_n and_o supernatural_a ground_n and_o divine_a principle_n draw_v from_o christ_n to_o duty_n so_o that_o it_o be_v enable_v even_o with_o a_o holy_a violence_n to_o do_v any_o thing_n for_o christ_n sake_n for_o the_o soul_n reason_n thus_o christ_n give_v himself_o to_o death_n for_o i_o i_o
