supper_n i_o find_v therein_o be_v comfort_n for_o the_o poor_a for_o when_o those_o that_o be_v bid_v be_v not_o find_v worthy_a through_o their_o own_o neglect_n and_o so_o be_v detain_v from_o

my_o house_n may_v be_v full_a now_o as_o to_o the_o meaning_n of_o these_o parable_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o which_o they_o be_v bid_v to_o supper_n be_v his_o invitation_n to_o we_o by_o the_o
