there_o may_v be_v some_o little_a difference_n observe_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o expression_n and_o that_o more_o in_o the_o original_a than_o in_o our_o translation_n of_o they_o in_o the_o

all_o christian_n as_o such_o be_v oblige_v to_o to_o seek_v one_o and_o the_o same_o end_n to_o have_v the_o same_o grand_a business_n and_o design_n carry_v on_o the_o promote_a of_o god_n glory_n
