all_o the_o rest_n together_o as_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o multitude_n of_o significant_a word_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n do_v actual_o use_v hear_v &_o no_o other_o sense_n to_o communicate_v to_o we_o his_o faith_n for_o our_o whole_a duty_n to_o god_n &_o our_o neighbour_n what_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o believe_v &_o practice_n be_v all_o deliver_v either_o by_o live_a word_n
