yea_o it_o may_v be_v as_o be_v like_a people_n and_o nation_n if_o we_o look_v but_o upon_o the_o moor_n indian_n and_o barbarian_n in_o these_o our_o day_n doubtless_o it_o be_v and_o have_v be_v the_o case_n of_o many_o thousand_o man_n in_o the_o world_n never_o to_o hear_v a_o prophet_n and_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n speak_v although_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n may_v speak_v plentiful_o for_o their_o own_o advantage_n as_o also_o many_o infant_n die_v before_o they_o have_v the_o use_n of_o reason_n a_o godly_a man_n therefore_o can_v never_o be_v send_v or_o expesse_fw-la himself_n
