from_o the_o argument_n that_o i_o be_o now_o upon_o that_o our_o apostle_n be_v here_o entreat_v of_o the_o matter_n of_o joy_n and_o no_o other_o song_n therefore_o to_o be_v here_o understand_v but_o song_n of_o praise_n or_o such_o as_o have_v a_o affinity_n with_o they_o i_o do_v not_o see_v why_o hymn_n as_o well_o as_o ode_n may_v not_o pass_v for_o song_n of_o a_o artificial_a composition_n and_o ode_n therefore_o no_o more_o than_o hymn_n to_o appropriate_v that_o notion_n to_o themselves_o i_o rather_o think_v that_o when_o st._n paul_n exhort_v these_o man_n to_o speak_v
