the_o great_a work_n they_o have_v to_o do_v upon_o we_o be_v upon_o the_o inward_a man_n and_o that_o be_v minister_a spirit_n their_o ministration_n be_v spiritual_a and_o as_o the_o devil_n who_o though_o they_o do_v some_o thing_n to_o our_o body_n do_v ever_o infect_v our_o spirit_n so_o the_o good_a angel_n much_o rather_o apply_v themselves_o in_o their_o ministration_n to_o our_o spirit_n but_o to_o show_v how_o they_o can_v operate_v upon_o our_o understanding_n and_o will_n we_o will_v first_o lay_v this_o down_o that_o god_n can_v only_o effectual_o enlighten_v the_o understanding_n and_o determine_v the_o will_n he_o can_v bend_v and_o turn_v and_o form_v it_o which_o way_n he_o please_v but_o the_o angel_n can_v speak_v also_o to_o those_o pure_a spiritual_a part_n &_o their_o speak_n carry_v a_o power_n with_o it_o though_o god_n only_o determine_v first_o as_o one_o man_n teach_v another_o so_o the_o angel_n speak_v to_o the_o bless_a virgin_n by_o apparition_n by_o
