with_o beatitude_n and_o glory_n therefore_o their_o pilgrimage_n be_v very_o short_a but_o their_o mansion_n in_o heaven_n eternal_a if_o yet_o that_o short_a space_n which_o pass_v between_o their_o creation_n and_o beatitude_n may_v be_v call_v a_o pilgrimage_n but_o we_o in_o our_o creation_n receive_v grace_n with_o our_o nature_n in_o our_o first_o parent_n and_o not_o in_o ourselves_o therefore_o by_o his_o fall_n we_o all_o fall_v in_o who_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v rom._n 5._o all_o sin_v for_o although_o by_o the_o mediator_n of_o god_n and_o man_n christ_n jesus_n we_o be_v

sight_n 5_o 2_o cor_n 5_o and_o it_o much_o afflict_v pious_a man_n and_o such_o as_o sighafter_o heaven_n that_o we_o be_v here_o conversant_a among_o our_o cruel_a energy_n where_o there_o be_v
