who_o they_o suppose_v shall_v be_v his_o forerunner_n appear_v in_o glory_n both_o together_o in_o his_o transfiguration_n why_o then_o say_v they_o do_v the_o scribe_n say_v that_o elias_n must_v

tell_v he_o in_o the_o power_n and_o spirit_n of_o elias_n luke_n 1_o for_o this_o reason_n as_o our_o saviour_n be_v not_o conceive_v nor_o bear_v till_o six_o month_n after_o john_n so_o he_o

john_n be_v not_o only_o a_o forerunner_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o his_o nativity_n and_o prophesy_v but_o also_o in_o his_o passion_n and_o suffering_n for_o so_o our_o saviour_n himself_o express_o
