if_o the_o son_n shall_v make_v you_o free_a then_o shall_v you_o be_v free_a indeed_o so_o people_n this_o make_v it_o plain_o appear_v that_o they_o that_o plead_v so_o much_o for_o sin_n they_o

for_o the_o teacher_n of_o the_o world_n can_v say_v as_o the_o prophet_n say_v and_o as_o christ_n speak_v and_o the_o apostle_n speak_v as_o they_o find_v it_o write_v in_o the_o scripture_n and_o
