to_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n there_o must_v be_v a_o new_a nature_n wrought_v in_o we_o and_o those_o propension_n change_v for_o better_a a_o new_a principle_n must_v be_v instill_v which_o shall_v render_v we_o inclinable_a to_o righteousness_n as_o before_o we_o be_v to_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o text_n call_v a_o be_v bear_v again_o nor_o be_v this_o so_o harsh_a a_o trope_n or_o uncouth_a form_n of_o speech_n as_o at_o first_o view_v it_o may_v seem_v to_o be_v but_o very_o usual_a with_o some_o little_a alteration_n in_o all_o language_n for_o denuo_fw-la nasci_fw-la or_o de_fw-fr novo_fw-la nasci_fw-la to_o be_v bear_v again_o or_o bear_v anew_o be_v all_o one_o as_o to_o have_v novam_fw-la naturam_fw-la a_o new_a nature_n natura_n be_v

be_v not_o indeed_o so_o obvious_a to_o observe_v that_o equivalency_n in_o our_o own_o language_n because_o the_o noun_n and_o verb_n be_v not_o conjugate_v as_o in_o the_o greek_a and_o latin_a the_o word_n nature_n come_v by_o a_o french_a extraction_n from_o nascor_fw-la but_o to_o bear_n and_o to_o be_v bear_v by_o a_o saxon_a from_o pario_fw-la but_o both_o be_v word_n of_o the_o same_o

that_o to_o be_v bear_v again_o or_o bear_v anew_o be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o have_v another_o nature_n a_o new_a nature_n to_o become_v as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v another_o kind_a of_o man_n for_o
