as_o they_o have_v be_v unfortunate_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o change_n in_o the_o face_n of_o their_o affair_n as_o shall_v affect_v even_o nature_n herself_o and_o make_v a_o

instead_o of_o the_o briar_n shall_v come_v up_o the_o myrtle-tree_n notwithstanding_o these_o expression_n which_o relish_v only_o of_o temporal_a satisfaction_n we_o be_v to_o conceive_v that_o such_o blessing_n be_v signify_v by_o they_o as_o be_v too_o high_a to_o stoop_v to_o sense_n and_o a_o redemption_n from_o babylonian_a bondage_n do_v intimate_v a_o much_o more_o glorious_a

for_o this_o exposition_n i_o have_v st._n paul_n authority_n who_o quote_v this_o very_a passage_n for_o a_o proof_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n at_o act_n 13.34_o and_o as_o concern_v that_o be_v
