also_o and_o after_o my_o lord_n of_o clogh_a the_o next_o it_o come_v to_o my_o turn_n which_o i_o see_v so_o great_a a_o downfall_n and_o the_o pike_n do_v so_o bend_v and_o shake_v that_o i_o can_v not_o set_v one_o foot_n over_o it_o be_v afraid_a so_o than_o i_o think_v mr._n rogers_n cry_v out_o and_o say_v o_o friend_n friend_n you_o have_v walk_v in_o the_o path_n of_o unrighteousness_n so_o then_o i_o think_v he_o make_v a_o prayer_n to_o almighty_a god_n that_o he_o will_v admit_v i_o to_o go_v over_o and_o so_o then_o i_o think_v he_o bow_v three_o or_o four_o time_n and_o cry_v out_o with_o a_o loud_a voice_n and_o say_v o_o thou_o great_a god_n how_o much_o i_o be_o bind_v unto_o thou_o for_o all_o thy_o love_n and_o manifestation_n towards_o i_o so_o then_o i_o think_v he_o take_v i_o by_o the_o hand_n and_o bid_v i_o come_v over_o and_o not_o to_o fear_v and_o then_o i_o walk_v over_o with_o as_o much_o safety_n as_o the_o rest_n so_o then_o i_o think_v we_o go_v a_o little_a further_o and_o we_o come_v to_o a_o very_a fair_a room_n and_o there_o be_v not_o any_o in_o it_o as_o i_o can_v see_v but_o mr._n rogers_n and_o col._n hewson_n and_o the_o lord_n of_o
