of_o that_o thing_n which_o here_o we_o seek_v for_o for_o like_a as_o a_o little_a dew_n or_o sprinkle_n of_o water_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o cause_v the_o earth_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n which_o do_v no_o more_o but_o only_o allay_v the_o dust_n and_o wet_v the_o uppermost_a part_n of_o the_o grind_v but_o it_o be_v needful_a to_o have_v so_o much_o water_n that_o it_o may_v enter_v
