here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o that_o in_o the_o ladder_n that_o be_v show_v unto_o jacob_n 12._o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n stand_v upon_o the_o top_n of_o it_o and_o touch_v both_o heaven_n and_o

12._o as_o i_o have_v allege_v before_o according_a whereunto_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n be_v the_o father_n of_o light_n and_o so_o also_o do_v the_o scripture_n name_v he_o again_o our_o lord_n

that_o be_v too_o say_v we_o be_v so_o iâ—â—yghtened_v that_o god_n light_n be_v in_o we_o namely_o because_o we_o be_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o and_o
