light_v two_o thing_n the_o light_n and_o the_o fire_n if_o the_o question_n be_v what_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o light_n the_o answer_n must_v be_v fire_n but_o if_o we_o shall_v ask_v whether_o

learn_v to_o remember_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v titus_n 2.14_o he_o have_v redeem_v we_o a_o people_n to_o himself_o to_o be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n and_o thou_o that_o condemne_v well_o
