respect_n we_o have_v that_o to_o think_v of_o to_o quiet_v we_o in_o our_o suffering_n which_o christ_n have_v not_o as_o 1._o that_o our_o affliction_n be_v but_o small_a christ_n can_v not_o say_v

of_o all_o principality_n and_o power_n though_o he_o have_v in_o all_o thing_n the_o pre-eminence_n he_o be_v too_o good_a in_o some_o sense_n to_o appear_v in_o such_o a_o sinful_a world_n as_o
