testimony_n that_o as_o christ_n rule_v in_o the_o saint_n so_o the_o devil_n rule_v in_o the_o wicked_a and_o be_v in_o they_o and_o as_o god_n have_v his_o seed_n and_o birth_n in_o the_o saint_n

from_o what_o it_o be_v original_o before_o sin_n be_v but_o if_o we_o take_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o devil_n distinct_o sin_n the_o seed_n of_o sin_n as_o distinct_a from_o himself_o we_o do_v not_o
