discern_v it_o it_o can_v be_v that_o we_o shall_v reach_v it_o any_o otherwise_o then_o by_o the_o most_o close_a meditation_n and_o engagement_n of_o our_o mind_n by_o which_o we_o must_v

there_o be_v few_o thing_n transact_v even_o in_o our_o intellectual_a part_n but_o through_o the_o help_n and_o furtherance_n of_o corporal_a instrument_n which_o by_o more_o than_o ordinary_a
