reason_n main_o that_o our_o saviour_n so_o long_o delay_v his_o come_n because_o than_o he_o intend_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o and_o to_o take_v vengeance_n of_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n and_o

at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o as_o a_o stone_n that_o descend_v to_o its_o centre_n the_o near_a it_o approach_v the_o more_o speed_n and_o swiftness_n and_o withal_o the_o more_o weight_n
