of_o knowledge_n be_v therein_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o universal_a love_n of_o god_n in_o his_o eternal_a spirit_n unto_o the_o world_n so_o here_o lie_v the_o difference_n between_o true_a teach_v

of_o all_o the_o false_a teach_v be_v that_o spirit_n of_o iniquity_n the_o old_a deceiver_n of_o the_o world_n the_o serpent_n that_o work_v and_o wrought_v under_o a_o mystery_n subject_v mankind_n
