when_o this_o immortal_a precious_a soul_n be_v enlarge_v to_o the_o uttermost_a with_o all_o excellency_n shall_v then_o meet_v with_o a_o infinite_a god_n the_o infinite_a first-being_a of_o all_o

that_o the_o soul_n be_v capable_a of_o with_o god_n it_o be_v to_o have_v a_o union_n with_o god_n for_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v make_v one_o with_o god_n to_o be_v unite_v so_o as_o to_o be_v make_v one_o with_o he_o he_o that_o be_v join_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v one_o spirit_n say_v the_o apostle_n and_o say_v christ_n in_o joh._n 17._o father_n i_o will_v that_o those_o that_o thou_o have_v

likewise_o a_o spirit_n there_o will_v be_v a_o exact_a union_n one_o with_o another_o and_o so_o the_o more_o spiritual_a thing_n be_v the_o more_o they_o communicate_v one_o to_o another_o as_o in_o
