the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o unit_v they_o be_v distinct_a from_o both_o now_o take_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o a_o distinct_a thing_n from_o the_o soul_n and_o what_o be_v the_o soul_n but_o

that_o we_o do_v not_o live_v the_o uncreated_a life_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n communicate_v to_o we_o for_o we_o can_v live_v a_o high_a or_o great_a spiritual_a life_n than_o the_o humane_a
