not_o what_o to_o desire_v as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v but_o the_o spirit_n help_v our_o infirmiry_n and_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o /_o that_o be_v make_v we_o to_o pray_v with_o such_o sorrowful_a groninge_n as_o can_v not_o be_v express_v with_o tungue_n therefore_o take_v not_o away_o this_o thy_o holy_a spirit_n from_o i_o /_o that_z he_o may_v teach_v i_o to_o pray_v /_o and_o
