if_o you_o find_v that_o the_o scripture_n approve_v of_o they_o then_o make_v use_v of_o their_o example_n for_o imitation_n and_o encouragement_n as_o a_o man_n in_o a_o ship_n have_v his_o hand_n

of_o the_o church_n i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o our_o own_o church_n shall_v be_v slight_v by_o they_o that_o can_v deny_v themselves_o to_o be_v her_o child_n much_o less_o the_o primitive_a and_o
