the_o person_n to_o who_o the_o work_n be_v do_v must_v be_v oblige_v and_o bind_v by_o right_a to_o render_v and_o recompense_v the_o worker_n for_o the_o worthiness_n of_o the_o work_n so_o that_o

our_o work_n can_v be_v meritorious_a of_o eternal_a life_n and_o as_o to_o the_o second_o all_o that_o we_o can_v do_v or_o be_v able_a to_o do_v we_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v it_o already_o by_o the_o
