declare_v thy_o name_n unto_o my_o brethren_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o church_n will_v i_o sing_v praise_n unto_o thou_o christ_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o church_n sing_v praise_n to_o god_n

against_o this_o point_n and_o then_o come_v to_o the_o application_n you_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o prayer_n of_o god_n people_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a but_o when_o they_o call_v unto_o he_o he_o
