of_o god_n be_v so_o distribute_v and_o divide_v that_o there_o be_v none_o of_o god_n elect_v to_o who_o be_v give_v less_o than_o may_v suffice_v unto_o salvation_n for_o the_o measure_n of_o

have_v so_o moderate_v all_o those_o thing_n by_o his_o wisdom_n that_o to_o those_o who_o he_o have_v appoint_v to_o endure_v many_o great_a battle_n he_o have_v give_v a_o large_a portion_n of_o
