for_o the_o dead_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o resurrection_n therefore_o we_o can_v doubt_v but_o that_o the_o memorial_n here_o speak_v of_o by_o epiphanius_n use_v for_o the_o saint_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o body_n in_o the_o earth_n be_v a_o prayer_n for_o they_o to_o wish_v their_o full_a and_o perfect_a consummation_n by_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a my_o former_a conclusion_n
