and_o i_o beseech_v you_o all_o dear_a christian_n to_o endeavour_v to_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o truth_n and_o holiness_n that_o so_o you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o give_v a_o faithful_a account_n of_o this_o transitory_a stewardship_n i_o can_v insist_v no_o long_o upon_o this_o discourse_n by_o reason_n my_o time_n be_v short_a and_o the_o glorious_a angel_n have_v summon_v i_o to_o appear_v
