must_v not_o speak_v simple_o against_o repetition_n but_o in_o great_a wisdom_n of_o the_o spirit_n because_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o godly_a can_v satisfy_v itself_o with_o faith_n and_o feel_n of_o god_n promise_n unless_o it_o break_v forth_o as_o a_o fire_n into_o many_o speech_n hereby_o we_o know_v now_o that_o the_o man_n of_o god_n here_o express_v his_o faith_n &_o we_o be_v to_o
