for_o the_o improvement_n of_o our_o manner_n i_o be_o sensible_a that_o the_o sermon_n of_o our_o saviour_n make_v up_o a_o great_a part_n of_o his_o life_n and_o that_o the_o truth_n he_o teach_v be_v as_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v as_o the_o action_n he_o do_v but_o since_o several_a of_o his_o sermon_n especial_o such_o as_o concern_v the_o proof_n of_o his_o divinity_n be_v scarce_o
