they_o have_v not_o sufficient_a evidence_n for_o it_o sometime_o they_o say_v there_o be_v six_o principle_n viz._n 1._o the_o person_n of_o god_n 2._o person_n of_o angel_n 3._o person_n of_o the_o

35._o that_o elias_n be_v the_o god_n and_o the_o father_n to_o who_o christ_n say_v my_o god_n my_o god_n and_o father_n into_o thy_o hand_n and_o to_o who_o he_o pray_v father_n if_o it_o be_v
