which_o bring_v into_o repute_n and_o acceptation_n with_o god_n the_o first_o again_o together_o with_o its_o own_o and_o so_o god_n be_v thereupon_o engage_v to_o be_v faithful_a in_o his_o care_n

as_o in_o other_o psalm_n so_o ps_n 138._o 8._o forsake_v not_o the_o work_n of_o thy_o own_o hand_n that_o be_v this_o double_a workmanship_n of_o thou_o of_o the_o first_o and_o then_o superad_v
