the_o same_o after_o the_o interpretation_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n for_o we_o must_v take_v right_a good_a heed_n that_o we_o devyse_v not_o worshyppinge_n of_o god_n and_o good_a work_n

work_n of_o the_o herte_n as_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n faith_n love_n towards_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n true_a invocation_n patience_n in_o trouble_n chastity_n &_o cet_fw-fr and_o it_o be_v
