the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o world_n do_v never_o once_o see_v the_o glory_n that_o shine_v to_o they_o in_o the_o redeemer_n but_o god_n have_v another_o world_n beside_o this_o and_o other_o

then_o to_o man_n and_o god_n may_v have_v a_o thousand-fold_n more_o glory_n from_o they_o that_o be_v but_o the_o spectator_n and_o admirer_n then_o from_o we_o in_o our_o present_a darkness_n
