that_o spiritual_a blessing_n may_v invest_v the_o spirit_n and_o be_v convey_v by_o proportion_a instrument_n lest_o the_o sacrament_n be_v like_o a_o treasure_n in_o a_o dead_a hand_n or_o music_n in_o the_o grave_n but_o this_o i_o choose_v rather_o to_o represent_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o father_n of_o the_o church_n than_o i_o own_o we_o see_v say_v st._n epiphanius_n what_o our_o
