from_o glory_n to_o glory_n even_o as_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o scripture_n have_v very_o much_o in_o it_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o gospel_n and_o compare_v that_o to_o a_o glass_n

in_o the_o world_n for_o man_n and_o man_n for_o himself_o and_o so_o god_n come_v to_o attain_v the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n by_o man_n so_o that_o man_n be_v next_o unto_o
