unto_o who_o good_n they_o be_v receive_v in_o grace_n as_o stranger_n 74._o for_o as_o ishmael_n do_v not_o go_v to_o isaac_n for_o the_o inheritance_n which_o proper_o belong_v to_o isaac_n

with_o his_o voice_n in_o the_o son_n and_o hear_v we_o only_o through_o his_o voice_n manifest_v in_o the_o son_n 77._o now_o when_o the_o turk_n worship_v the_o father_n he_o hear_v they_o in_o the_o son_n and_o receive_v they_o to_o adoption_n in_o the_o son_n in_o who_o god_n have_v only_o manifest_v himself_o in_o humane_a property_n and_o in_o no_o other_o property_n beside_o 78._o now_o
