in_o that_o consideration_n simple_o be_v count_v for_o the_o seed_n but_o in_o isaac_n shall_v his_o seed_n be_v call_v namely_o such_o as_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o promise_n in_o christ_n by_o the_o

what_o say_v we_o then_o viz._n in_o what_o he_o have_v forspeak_v from_o ver._n 6._o to_o this_o place_n the_o answer_n to_o which_o question_n follow_v viz._n that_o the_o gentile_n which_o follow_v
