and_o that_o there_o be_v spirit_n and_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o that_o those_o spirit_n be_v immortal_a but_o to_o know_v it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o have_v

though_o the_o scripture_n acknowledge_v spirit_n yet_o do_v it_o nowhere_o say_v that_o they_o be_v incorporeal_a mean_v thereby_o without_o dimension_n and_o quality_n nor_o i_o think_v be_v that_o
