richard_n tomes_n we_o do_v read_v in_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n that_o in_o the_o apostle_n day_n there_o be_v a_o noble_a festus_n among_o the_o magistrate_n therefore_o do_v i_o write_v unto_o thou_o that_o thou_o be_v not_o stire_v up_o against_o a_o peaceable_a people_n that_o meet_v together_o single_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n &_o in_o truth_n for_o god_n be_v a_o

more_o than_o he_o do_v in_o the_o day_n of_o old_a and_o that_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v abomination_n to_o he_o as_o well_o in_o this_o day_n as_o in_o time_n past_a but_o he_o that_o

heart_n to_o be_v sanctify_v and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o meet_v together_o for_o and_o we_o be_v but_o yet_o learn_v the_o lord_n prayer_n and_o as_o we_o be_v willing_a to_o wait_v that_o the_o will_n of_o god_n may_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o well_o as_o in_o heaven_n the_o lord_n have_v blessed_v we_o and_o we_o shall_v spread_v over_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o though_o

curse_v that_o which_o god_n have_v blessed_v and_o as_o we_o keep_v the_o word_n of_o his_o patience_n the_o lord_n god_n will_v keep_v we_o in_o the_o day_n of_o trial_n which_o shall_v certain_o come_v upon_o all_o that_o dwell_v on_o the_o earth_n and_o know_v not_o a_o habitation_n in_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n for_o the_o day_n be_v come_v which_o many_o will_v have_v see_v wherein_o the_o

to_o you_o and_o be_v hide_v from_o you_o and_o therefore_o you_o perish_v in_o your_o sin_n which_o separate_v you_o from_o the_o live_a god_n and_o do_v hinder_v good_a thing_n from_o you_o who_o live_v in_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v up_o iniquity_n as_o the_o ox_n drink_v water_n but_o now_o in_o the_o latter_a day_n the_o lord_n be_v pour_v forth_o his_o spirit_n

all_o know_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n from_o the_o great_a to_o the_o least_o for_o i_o will_v write_v my_o law_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o put_v my_o fear_n in_o their_o inward_a part_n say_v the_o

therefore_o in_o the_o invisible_a light_n we_o be_v move_v to_o write_v unto_o thou_o see_v thou_o in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o light_v every_o man_n that_o come_v
