the_o jewish_a people_n among_o who_o have_v remain_v some_o doctrine_n touch_v god_n and_o with_o who_o there_o be_v some_o honest_a discipline_n but_o let_v we_o compare_v rome_n in_o nero_n time_n

after_o this_o speak_v touch_v the_o argument_n of_o this_o psalm_n no_o doubt_v it_o be_v that_o the_o first_o pair_v of_o the_o psalm_n be_v a_o plentiful_a &_o notable_a description_n of_o glory_n
