the_o three_o scripture_n be_v ephes_n 2.3_o and_o be_v by_o nature_n child_n of_o wrath_n even_o as_o other_o if_o paul_n and_o all_o the_o corinthian_n be_v child_n of_o wrath_n by_o nature_n i.e._n

that_o i_o shall_v say_v though_o a_o man_n be_v regenerate_v yet_o this_o be_v not_o sufficient_a i_o own_v it_o do_v but_o add_v that_o which_o we_o be_v certain_o speak_v of_o viz._n in_o
