that_o they_o do_v believe_v and_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o answer_n be_v yea_o but_o with_o this_o distinction_n a_o present_a actual_a habit_n of_o faith_n there_o be_v not_o in_o they_o but_o

by_o the_o imposition_n of_o his_o hand_n and_o by_o his_o prayer_n now_o therefore_o as_o joseph_n when_o he_o hear_v his_o old_a father_n jacob_n be_v sick_a make_v haste_n to_o bring_v his_o
