that_o we_o come_v not_o in_o malice_n then_o the_o governor_n ask_v we_o whether_o we_o do_v believe_v christ_n body_n be_v in_o heaven_n we_o answer_v we_o know_v that_o his_o body_n be_v in_o

for_o nothing_o but_o to_o ensnare_v we_o for_o you_o will_v not_o be_v satisfy_v with_o any_o answer_n then_o the_o governor_n say_v sure_a enough_o we_o do_v seek_v to_o ensnare_v yond_o then_o
