the_o testimony_n of_o the_o lord_n eternal_a spirit_n in_o ourselves_o that_o we_o have_v answer_v the_o lord_n end_n in_o his_o call_n of_o we_o in_o that_o we_o have_v faithful_o show_v forth_o

the_o lord_n when_o he_o covever_v our_o head_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o battle_n even_o until_o that_o the_o fury_n of_o the_o wicked_a come_v to_o be_v abate_v so_o oftentimes_o you_o know_v have_v we_o see_v the_o eminent_a hand_n of_o our_o god_n stretch_v out_o for_o our_o deliverance_n which_o have_v hitherto_o preserve_v we_o to_o our_o great_a admiration_n therefore_o let_v we_o who_o have_v have_v such_o experience_n of_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o our_o god_n endeavour_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o he_o even_o faithful_a as_o he_o be_v faithful_a and_o now_o forasmuch_o as_o that_o in_o these_o perilous_a time_n we_o can_v well_o serve_v our_o god_n in_o that_o way_n in_o which_o he_o require_v we_o to_o walk_v without_o be_v in_o jeopardy_n of_o bond_n and_o

which_o for_o that_o cause_n come_v upon_o we_o and_o this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n unto_o you_o neither_o will_n it_o be_v grievous_a to_o we_o while_o we_o keep_v in_o that_o through_o which_o we_o enjoy_v he_o in_o our_o meeting_n for_o in_o that_o may_v we_o enjoy_v he_o in_o our_o suffering_n and_o then_o it_o will_v be_v better_a to_o be_v one_o day_n in_o a_o prison_n with_o
