that_o he_o will_v bestow_v the_o father_n and_o son_n and_o himself_o also_o upon_o we_o but_o if_o you_o look_v on_o the_o some_o of_o the_o adversary_n opinion_n it_o will_v be_v very_o lawful_a to_o pray_v after_o that_o manner_n and_o certain_o believer_n when_o they_o ask_v spiritual_a gift_n do_v not_o intend_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v give_v which_o may_v by_o name_n come_v from_o
