by_o introduction_n and_o institution_n of_o christian_a religion_n if_o they_o shall_v be_v willing_a to_o learn_v of_o such_o as_o can_v teach_v they_o and_o to_o teach_v such_o as_o ought_v to_o

withal_o be_v devout_a and_o fervent_a in_o prayer_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n i_o say_v but_o that_o god_n may_v so_o bless_v their_o grain_n of_o mustard_n seed_n that_o it_o may_v grow_v into_o a_o
