which_o be_v unclean_a and_o whereas_o the_o voice_n say_v unto_o peter_n kill_v that_o we_o interpret_v in_o this_o manner_n peter_n baptize_v and_o when_o it_o be_v say_v peter_n eat_v that_o be_v

of_o other_o beast_n or_o blood_n because_o the_o lord_n love_v cleanness_n and_o sobriety_n and_o hate_v gluttony_n and_o uncleanness_n and_o our_o lord_n also_o great_o love_v those_o that_o
