himself_o into_o the_o fetters_n of_o this_o necessity_n by_o imitation_n and_o long_a practice_n and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o rather_o bear_v bondslave_n even_o from_o our_o conception_n 1.6.7_o therefore_o i_o admit_v not_o this_o except_o thou_o expound_v thy_o mind_n in_o this_o matter_n more_o plain_o final_o that_o which_o thou_o adjoine_v that_o god_n never_o deny_v to_o any_o a_o
