rule_n and_o governance_n of_o this_o world_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n god_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o never_o be_v there_o man_n
since_o the_o first_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n but_o be_v in_o subjection_n and_o under_o obedience_n either_o of_o the_o the_o one_o or_o of_o the_o other_o and_o as_o god_n be_v the_o
