himself_o be_v holiness_n or_o which_o be_v all_o one_o holiness_n be_v himself_o his_o own_o divine_a nature_n or_o essence_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o who_o partake_v of_o his_o holiness_n be_v say_v to_o partake_v of_o his_o 4._o divine_a nature_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o holy_a angel_n will_v celebrate_v the_o praise_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n in_o the_o high_a manner_n they_o can_v they_o cry_v holy_a holy_a holy_a be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n the_o whole_a 8._o earth_n be_v full_a of_o his_o glory_n and_o hence_o also_o it_o be_v that_o

to_o see_v god_n to_o that_o the_o apostle_n answer_v in_o my_o text_n by_o call_v it_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n it_o be_v true_a all_o man_n be_v bear_v at_o first_o
