according_a to_o the_o wisdom_n skill_n strength_n study_n and_o forecast_n about_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n that_o a_o creature_n mere_o as_o he_o be_v a_o creature_n be_v able_a to_o produce_v and_o

for_o hope_n that_o be_v see_v be_v no_o hope_n so_o that_o my_o nature_n afford_v no_o such_o thing_n but_o only_o that_o nature_n to_o which_o i_o be_o unite_v and_o in_o a_o other_o place_n thou_o
