believer_n and_o all_o his_o grace_n to_o flourish_v exceed_o viii_o the_o gospel_n have_v a_o twofold_a use_n and_o benefit_n it_o be_v necessary_a as_o the_o former_a rain_n at_o the_o beginning_n or_o first_o work_v of_o grace_n upon_o the_o heart_n so_o it_o be_v needful_a afterward_o to_o ripen_v and_o prepare_v the_o soul_n for_o heaven_n be_v glad_a than_o you_o child_n of_o zion_n and_o rejoice_v in_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n for_o he_o have_v give_v you_o the_o former_a rain_n moderate_o and_o he_o will_v cause_v the_o rain_n to_o come_v down_o the_o former_a rain_n and_o latter_a
