patience_n they_o be_v call_v by_o the_o spirit_n king_n of_o the_o east_n so_o that_o christ_n his_o prophet_n apostle_n and_o saint_n be_v those_o king_n of_o the_o east_n who_o have_v the_o

for_o true_a revelation_n always_o have_v some_o to_o add_v to_o it_o and_o some_o to_o take_v from_o it_o so_o that_o he_o that_o take_v from_o it_o god_n will_v take_v his_o part_n out_o of_o the_o

when_o they_o have_v hear_v the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n with_o many_o deep_a secret_n open_v and_o many_o heavenly_a mystery_n reveal_v which_o never_o be_v reveal_v before_o or_o that_o
