shall_v have_v say_v although_o i_o do_v believe_v yet_o i_o fear_v my_o incredulity_n and_o therefore_o o_o lord_n i_o fain_o will_v believe_v with_o a_o high_a faith_n and_o with_o a_o more_o firm_a

and_o sink_v and_o beg_v help_v whereupon_o the_o lord_n stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n to_o succour_v he_o say_v why_o be_v thou_o fearful_a o_o man_n of_o little_a faith_n that_o faith_n which_o our_o

paul_n here_o call_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o after_o christ_n have_v form_v and_o establish_v his_o church_n he_o have_v very_o seldom_o give_v this_o kind_n of_o faith_n unless_o

condemn_v never_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n behold_v that_o faith_n which_o the_o holy_a angel_n gabriel_n want_v in_o the_o holy_a priest_n zachariah_n when_o he_o declare_v to_o he_o that_o the_o baptist_n shall_v be_v bear_v of_o a_o ancient_a mother_n and_o strike_v he_o dumb_a because_o he_o believe_v not_o behold_v that_o faith_n which_o the_o three_o child_n have_v in_o
