of_o the_o divinity_n to_o dwell_v and_o shine_v forth_o in_o the_o humanity_n and_o the_o humanity_n not_o to_o be_v extinguish_v or_o overwhelm_v by_o it_o be_v very_o wonderful_a and_o so_o noah_n

and_o this_o water_n to_o go_v along_o 4._o 1_o cor._n 10._o 4._o with_o the_o people_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v and_o administer_v refreshment_n to_o they_o in_o their_o march_n through_o the_o
