when_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o wash_v or_o give_v drink_n do_v require_v a_o person_n to_o wash_v and_o to_o give_v drink_n a_o holy_a wash_n do_v require_v a_o holy_a person_n to_o put_v a_o

the_o outward_a work_n which_o must_v full_o answer_v to_o this_o be_v require_v he_o who_o bear_v god_n person_n in_o this_o work_n and_o therefore_o can_v only_o consecrate_v offer_v and_o deliver_v with_o authority_n the_o outward_a thing_n which_o answer_v to_o the_o inward_a matter_n so_o that_o to_o receive_v it_o from_o another_o be_v to_o deny_v god_n ministry_n and_o to_o give_v the_o
