of_o god_n and_o a_o forerunner_n of_o death_n and_o death_n will_v follow_v but_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o mercy_n have_v hide_v from_o we_o the_o time_n when_o whereupon_o when_o his_o excellence_n

and_o go_v from_o we_o it_o seem_v so_o and_o certain_o this_o be_v no_o vain_a imagination_n but_o the_o king_n of_o all_o king_n and_o the_o lord_n of_o all_o lord_n who_o judgement_n be_v just_a
