neither_o from_o man_n nor_o by_o man_n we_o see_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o husbandry_n that_o the_o seed_n ordinary_o fructifi_v in_o the_o earth_n by_o the_o labour_n of_o man_n and_o the_o

to_o every_o seed_n his_o own_o body_n 1._o cor._n 15.38_o hereupon_o we_o read_v that_o isaak_n sow_v corn_n in_o the_o land_n of_o gerar_n and_o have_v by_o estimation_n a_o hundred_o fold_n

so_o as_o man_n shout_v for_o joy_n and_o sing_v psal_n 65.9.10.11.13_o so_o be_v it_o with_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n though_o the_o minister_n be_v god_n husbandman_n and_o though_o they_o
