〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o gift_n here_o give_v to_o this_o bishop_n because_o this_o text_n be_v silent_a i_o can_v well_o determine_v grotius_n think_v it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o tongue_n and_o

for_o thy_o stomach_n sake_n and_o often_o infirmity_n will_v deserve_v to_o be_v consider_v and_o to_o have_v the_o question_v ask_v why_o if_o he_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o healing_n do_v he_o not_o
