dear_o ought_v every_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o love_v the_o people_n to_o who_o he_o be_v send_v they_o be_v his_o brethren_n and_o how_o dear_o ought_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o love_n and_o reverence_v every_o minister_n of_o god_n that_o be_v send_v among_o they_o he_o be_v their_o rrother_n their_o elder_a brother_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o conjugal_a relation_n so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o there_o be_v some_o duty_n proper_a to_o the_o husband_n some_o proper_a to_o the_o wife_n but_o love_n be_v a_o duty_n equal_o incumbent_a upon_o they_o both_o so_o it_o be_v here_o there_o be_v duty_n indeed_o proper_a to_o the_o preacher_n as_o a_o preacher_n some_o proper_a to_o the_o people_n as_o hearer_n but_o love_n be_v a_o duty_n equal_o incumbent_a upon_o they_o both_o as_o they_o be_v brethren_n the_o preacher_n must_v love_v the_o people_n dear_o as_o his_o brethren_n so_o paul_n profess_v abundance_n of_o love_n to_o the_o corinthian_n 2_o cor._n 2.4_o and_o so_o

the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v enough_o to_o enforce_v this_o unto_o we_o for_o you_o find_v that_o when_o jesus_n know_v that_o his_o hour_n be_v come_v that_o he_o shall_v depart_v out_o of_o
