may_v assist_v we_o with_o his_o charitable_a intercession_n but_o we_o pray_v for_o other_o that_o be_v to_o say_v for_o all_o they_o of_o who_o actual_a felicity_n the_o church_n have_v not_o yet_o attain_a a_o secure_a and_o infallible_a persuasion_n otherwise_o if_o she_o know_v that_o they_o be_v in_o present_a possession_n of_o joy_n it_o be_v as_o great_a as_o injury_n to_o pray_v for_o they_o also_o as_o for_o the_o martyr_n themselves_o since_o the_o reason_n why_o she_o pray_v not_o for_o martyr_n be_v because_o she_o be_v confident_o resolve_v that_o they_o be_v in_o heaven_n
