and_o he_o want_v not_o the_o force_n of_o grace_n to_o bear_v as_o great_a a_o burden_n as_o he_o will_v therefore_o he_o will_v that_o his_o pain_n shall_v be_v pass_v great_a that_o so_o likewise_o the_o satisfaction_n which_o he_o shall_v make_v for_o our_o debt_n and_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n may_v be_v also_o pass_v great_a the_o second_o cause_n which_o follow_v hereof_o be_v
