for_o though_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o sinner_n as_o other_o be_v as_o the_o pharisee_n wrongful_o 7._o john_n 7._o say_v of_o he_o yet_o peter_n say_v in_o he_o be_v no_o 2._o 1._o pet._n 2._o

to_o his_o godhead_n which_o belong_n to_o his_o man_n hood_z as_o paul_n say_v to_o the_o elder_n of_o ephesus_n 20._o acts._n 20._o watch_v over_o the_o flock_n which_o god_n have_v purchase_v
