we_o of_o a_o truth_n and_o walk_v all_o circumspect_o not_o as_o fool_n but_o as_o wise_a for_o wisdom_n be_v better_a than_o strength_n in_o the_o eternal_a light_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n

the_o power_n and_o the_o glory_n for_o evermore_o then_o shall_v judgement_n be_v give_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o ancient_n of_o day_n shall_v sit_v upon_o the_o wicked_a and_o they_o shall_v
