 8   8|    heart and even to the lips, 3 To bring forth fruit to
 9   9|        concerning his Messiah. 3 For in the will of the Lord
10  10|   might speak the fruit peace: 3 To convert the souls of

19  20|      them that serve carnally. 3 The sacrifice of the Lord
20  21|     clothed myself with light, 3 And my soul acquired a body
21  22|      He also who cast me down: 3 He who scattered my enemies
