help_n assistance_n and_o comfort_n and_o so_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v that_o such_o person_n as_o be_v so_o full_a of_o hatred_n before_o our_o saviour_n come_v that_o they_o do_v not_o only_o contend_v and_o quarrel_v but_o also_o worry_v and_o devour_v one_o another_o shall_v in_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n become_v new_a creature_n and_o lay_v aside_o their_o enmity_n and_o

the_o same_o house_n that_o be_v as_o brethren_n and_o sister_n or_o who_o lie_n in_o the_o same_o bed_n that_o be_v as_o husband_n and_o wife_n between_o who_o there_o be_v the_o strong_a and_o
