thou_o will_v give_v thirty_o pound_n for_o raise_v up_o of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o judas_n receive_v thirty_o piece_n of_o silver_n for_o betray_v christ_n the_o love_n of_o god_n so_o the_o trader_n in_o money_n for_o either_o buy_n or_o sell_v the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v deny_v for_o they_o be_v both_o from_o one_o root_n but_o we_o have_v learn_v to_o abide_v in_o the_o live_a vine_n that_o we_o may_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n unto_o our_o heavenly_a father_n who_o have_v beget_v we_o unto_o himself_o by_o the_o gospel_n which_o be_v a_o sure_a stay_n to_o

to_o the_o world_n but_o we_o have_v enter_v into_o our_o rest_n thou_o will_v have_v the_o person_n of_o those_o thou_o have_v invite_v bid_v welcome_a and_o also_o to_o remember_v the_o spirit_n of_o they_o that_o be_v friend_n to_o the_o bridegroom_n and_o so_o thy_o feast_n be_v for_o the_o dead_a and_o live_a but_o these_o so_o compact_v together_o thou_o call_v the_o church_n of_o the_o

and_o although_o they_o be_v in_o time_n past_o dead_a as_o well_o as_o other_o yet_o now_o behold_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n they_o live_v for_o evermore_o there_o abide_v in_o christ_n the_o
