father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o these_o be_v three_o and_o that_o the_o father_n be_v the_o god_n of_o christian_n the_o son_n be_v the_o god_n of_o christian_n and_o the_o

it_o seem_v not_o to_o i_o a_o blasphemy_n to_o assert_v the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o word_n who_o our_o prophet_n call_v the_o breath_n of_o god_n if_o this_o breath_n or_o word_n of_o god_n be_v
