receipt_n i_o say_v be_v most_o precious_a that_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o will_v not_o likely_o fail_v reason_n 3_o three_o that_o we_o shall_v remember_v these_o comfortable_a mean_n and_o remedy_n to_o ease_v we_o in_o our_o trial_n hand_n and_o to_o keep_v we_o from_o despair_n they_o be_v write_v &_o register_v to_o our_o hand_n in_o god_n book_n as_o also_o to_o confirm_v our_o knowledge_n
