be_v so_o too_o the_o time_n of_o our_o birth_n be_v doubtless_o uncertain_a for_o though_o the_o talmudick_n doctor_n do_v aver_v that_o the_o foetus_n of_o dumb_a animal_n be_v form_v within_o a_o

deliver_v before_o or_o after_o that_o time_n so_o the_o ordinary_a term_n of_o man_n life_n be_v 70_o year_n yet_o very_o sew_v live_v so_o long_o therefore_o the_o term_n of_o our_o life_n be_v
