for_o our_o own_o good_a for_o the_o first_o time_n what_o it_o be_v to_o know_v the_o time_n in_o reference_n to_o duty_n you_o may_v please_v to_o observe_v that_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o in_o

of_o this_o tribe_n second_o diabolical_a there_o be_v another_o knowledge_n of_o the_o time_n which_o i_o may_v call_v a_o diabolical_a knowledge_n of_o the_o time_n whereby_o wicked_a and_o
