A30152	The holy citie, or, The new-Jerusalem wherein its goodly light walls, gates, angels, and the manner of their standing, are expounded : also, her length and breadth, together with the golden measuring-reed, explained, and the glory of all unfolded : as also, the numerousness of its inhabitants, and what the tree and water of life are, by which they are sustained / by John Bunyan ...

grate_v too_o near_o the_o ground_n for_o i_o to_o believe_v or_o rejoice_v in_o alas_o i_o find_v that_o those_o soul_n that_o have_v not_o now_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o life_n
