the_o very_a top_n and_o crown_n of_o all_o their_o glory_n another_o reason_n there_o be_v that_o whereas_o these_o father_n see_v how_o hard_o a_o matter_n it_o be_v to_o make_v the_o mean_a of_o the_o people_n to_o understand_v this_o mystery_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o how_o prone_a the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v not_o only_o to_o ascribe_v to_o other_o that_o which_o be_v only_o due_a
