the_o anoint_n of_o his_o spirit_n upon_o some_o choose_a one_o that_o he_o may_v increase_v the_o honour_n and_o joy_n of_o these_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o people_n by_o that_o salvation_n which_o he_o work_v through_o they_o and_o for_o their_o sake_n second_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o their_o deliverance_n be_v a_o double_a joy_n a_o harvest_n of_o spiritual_a glory_n and_o consolation_n in_o the_o appearance_n of_o god_n to_o they_o the_o spoil_n of_o the_o enemy_n who_o power_n and_o wealth_n become_v they_o while_o they_o be_v cut_v off_o by_o the_o appearance_n of_o god_n for_o his_o belove_a thus_o jesus_n christ_n at_o the_o same_o time_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n to_o the_o father_n and_o spoil_v the_o power_n and_o principality_n of_o this_o world_n carry_v captivity_n captive_n thus_o our_o saviour_n tell_v the_o saint_n that_o what_o ever_o they_o lose_v that_o be_v dear_a to_o they_o in_o this_o world_n they_o shall_v have_v it_o again_o a_o hundred-fold_n and_o everlasting_a life_n there_o be_v the_o harvest_n of_o spiritual_a joy_n everlasting_a life_n there_o be_v the_o spoil_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o captivity_n captivate_v when_o they_o recover_v all_o the_o beauty_n joy_n sweetness_n of_o this_o world_n out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o have_v they_o a_o
