and_o stay_v of_o your_o mind_n you_o continue_v not_o long_o in_o that_o condition_n but_o you_o consult_v with_o the_o subtlety_n which_o draw_v you_o from_o god_n witness_n what_o you_o shall_v

and_o for_o you_o and_o if_o you_o own_o the_o light_n that_o will_v plain_o show_v unto_o you_o how_o god_n former_o appear_v unto_o you_o and_o how_o you_o go_v from_o his_o appearance_n so_o the_o

you_v not_o be_v guide_v and_o lead_v into_o they_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o so_o against_o all_o such_o practice_n i_o do_v bear_v witness_n in_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n and_o
