Being the summe of LXIV lecture sermons preached at Sudbury in Suffolk, on Cantic. 8.5. / By Faithful Teate, M.A. minister of the Gospel.

1._o that_o christ_n glorify_v have_v receive_v sufficient_a strength_n there_o be_v strength_n and_o rest_n enough_o with_o christ_n glorify_v and_o triumphant_a for_o all_o believer_n militant_a
