think_v we_o can_v have_v none_o heavenly_a glory_n and_o joy_n except_o we_o have_v this_o earthly_a body_n there_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o the_o soul_n can_v have_v so_o great_a joy_n as_o if_o

now_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n in_o a_o parenthesis_n he_o cast_v in_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o be_v absent_a from_o god_n and_o a_o pilgrim_n here_o and_o say_v for_o we_o walk_v by_o faith_n and_o
