have_v the_o spiteful_a jew_n deliver_v i_o up_o prisoner_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o roman_n because_o i_o have_v preach_v the_o gospel_n unto_o you_o therefore_o i_o lie_v bind_v in_o prison_n

fatherlie_a rule_n &_o government_n do_v depend_v both_o in_o heaven_n and_o also_o in_o earth_n the_o word_n fatherhood_n be_v here_o take_v for_o fatherlie_a rule_n &_o government_n now_o see_v he_o

and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o three_o circumstance_n contain_v a_o rehearsal_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o the_o apostle_n wish_v to_o the_o ephesian_n to_o wit_n that_o in_o the_o partake_n and_o
