about_o that_o which_o he_o conceive_v impossible_a to_o be_v effect_v no_o man_n will_v set_v a_o team_n of_o horse_n to_o remove_v a_o feather_n because_o when_o he_o listen_v he_o can_v remove_v it_o with_o a_o slight_a puff_n of_o his_o breath_n no_o man_n also_o will_v set_v a_o team_n of_o horse_n to_o remove_v a_o mountain_n because_o he_o know_v it_o be_v a_o impossibility_n so_o that_o

a_o thing_n as_o man_n dream_v of_o to_o get_v the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n appear_v by_o that_o speech_n of_o peter_n to_o simon_n magus_n act._n 8.22_o repent_v thou_o of_o this_o wickedness_n if_o
