nor_o save_v we_o but_o he_o alone_o the_o other_o lesson_n be_v that_o our_o conscience_n understanding_n that_o god_n can_v and_o will_v help_v we_o shall_v cause_v we_o in_o all_o trouble_n to_o commend_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o and_o so_o more_o strong_o and_o patient_o bear_v &_o suffer_v all_o trouble_n and_o adversity_n be_v assure_v that_o we_o shall_v overcome_v they_o through_o he_o

to_o defend_v he_o how_o so_o ever_o his_o state_n be_v and_o therefore_o attribute_v unto_o he_o the_o whole_a victory_n &_o praise_n of_o his_o deliverance_n say_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o and_o do_v

or_o allegory_n he_o take_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o rod_n the_o second_o of_o a_o staff_n and_o say_v they_o do_v comfort_v he_o and_o defend_v he_o the_o three_o he_o take_v of_o a_o table_n
