shall_v not_o serve_v sin_n but_o quorsum_fw-la haec_fw-la how_o do_v this_o prove_v that_o all_o that_o christ_n die_v for_o be_v and_o shall_v be_v sanctify_v by_o his_o blood_n why_o he_o tell_v

what_o gather_v he_o from_o that_o why_o this_o that_o our_o sinful_a corruption_n and_o depravation_n of_o nature_n be_v by_o his_o death_n and_o crucify_a meritorious_o slay_v and_o disable_v from_o
