in_o he_o who_o be_v the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n and_o such_o a_o baptism_n be_v only_o suitable_a to_o all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n which_o be_v able_a to_o write_v the_o name_n of_o

17._o the_o commission_n can_v be_v as_o you_o say_v to_o baptize_v man_n into_o the_o name_n of_o god_n or_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n because_o it_o be_v not_o man_n work_n to_o baptize_v with_o
