so_o that_o thou_o see_v the_o word_n not_o do_v imply_v something_o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o have_v write_v unto_o you_o not_z to_o keep_v company_n with_o such_o and_o such_o and_o yet_o

nothing_o be_v all_o one_o and_o signify_v one_o thing_n and_o so_o paul_n be_v not_o send_v to_o preach_v that_o be_v not_o only_o send_v to_o baptise_v but_o to_o preach_v christ_n tell_v his_o
