And<00:22:04.779><c> so</c><00:22:04.920><c> somehow</c><00:22:05.099><c> we've</c><00:22:05.299><c> got</c><00:22:05.380><c> to</c><00:22:05.500><c> have</c><00:22:05.619><c> those</c><00:22:06.000><c> practical</c><00:22:06.539><c> things</c><00:22:06.940><c> that</c>

00:22:13.579 --> 00:22:15.839
and<00:22:13.740><c> the</c><00:22:13.920><c> arranging</c><00:22:14.220><c> brethren</c><00:22:14.460><c> given</c><00:22:14.720><c> more</c><00:22:15.079><c> time</c><00:22:15.299><c> to</c><00:22:15.500><c> focus</c>

00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:21.059
that<00:22:19.059><c> there</c><00:22:19.220><c> are</c><00:22:19.420><c> not</c><00:22:19.599><c> those</c><00:22:19.980><c> in</c><00:22:20.200><c> the</c><00:22:20.380><c> flock</c><00:22:20.559><c> that</c><00:22:20.680><c> are</c><00:22:20.839><c> being</c>

00:22:22.339 --> 00:22:26.839

00:22:27.339 --> 00:22:29.819
But<00:22:27.480><c> we've</c><00:22:27.680><c> got</c><00:22:27.759><c> to</c><00:22:27.859><c> have</c><00:22:27.980><c> an</c><00:22:28.160><c> active</c><00:22:28.559><c> program,</c><00:22:29.240><c> you</c><00:22:29.559><c> see,</c><00:22:29.700><c> in</c>

that<00:22:30.000><c> regard,</c>

00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:38.400
So<00:22:35.759><c> I</c><00:22:35.859><c> think</c><00:22:36.000><c> there</c><00:22:36.140><c> are</c><00:22:36.220><c> things</c><00:22:36.440><c> that</c><00:22:36.619><c> we</c><00:22:36.740><c> can</c><00:22:36.920><c> do</c><00:22:37.160><c> at</c><00:22:37.400><c> ecclesial</c><00:22:37.960><c> level</c>

00:22:44.059 --> 00:22:48.240

00:22:56.359 --> 00:22:58.579
Well,<00:22:56.539><c> I</c><00:22:56.619><c> suppose,</c><00:22:57.559><c> brothers</c><00:22:57.559><c> and</c><00:22:57.660><c> sisters,</c><00:22:57.960><c> the</c><00:22:58.140><c> first</c><00:22:58.380><c> and</c>

00:22:58.579 --> 00:23:01.119
obvious<00:22:58.859><c> answer</c><00:22:59.220><c> is</c><00:22:59.839><c> that</c><00:23:00.220><c> we</c><00:23:00.359><c> can</c><00:23:00.519><c> do</c><00:23:00.700><c> nothing,</c>

00:23:05.740 --> 00:23:09.160
Because,<00:23:06.339><c> you</c><00:23:06.480><c> know,</c><00:23:06.819><c> when</c><00:23:06.980><c> it</c><00:23:07.220><c> says</c><00:23:07.559><c> of</c><00:23:08.039><c> Christ</c><00:23:08.480><c> that</c><00:23:08.680><c> He</c><00:23:08.859><c> said,</c>

I<00:24:22.720><c> believe</c><00:24:23.079><c> that</c><00:24:23.319><c> our</c><00:24:23.660><c> prayers</c><00:24:24.019><c> should</c><00:24:24.579><c> name</c><00:24:25.099><c> those</c><00:24:25.779><c> who</c><00:24:26.079><c> are</c><00:24:26.259><c> lost.</c>

00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:32.579

00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:35.200

they<00:24:50.440><c> might</c><00:24:50.799><c> realize,</c>

00:24:51.819 --> 00:24:53.079
firstly,<00:24:52.240><c> that</c><00:24:52.380><c> they</c><00:24:52.559><c> are</c><00:24:52.819><c> lost.</c>

00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:57.660
there<00:24:55.380><c> is</c><00:24:55.539><c> nothing</c><00:24:55.740><c> that</c><00:24:55.940><c> anyone</c><00:24:56.119><c> else</c><00:24:56.480><c> can</c><00:24:56.839><c> do</c><00:24:57.099><c> to</c><00:24:57.319><c> help</c><00:24:57.500><c> them.</c>

00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:58.359
Is<00:24:57.779><c> that</c><00:24:57.940><c> not</c><00:24:58.160><c> true?</c>

00:24:58.440 --> 00:25:01.319
So<00:24:58.579><c> at</c><00:24:58.740><c> least</c><00:24:59.079><c> we</c><00:24:59.299><c> could</c><00:24:59.500><c> pray</c><00:24:59.700><c> for</c><00:24:59.920><c> that,</c><00:25:00.259><c> brothers</c><00:25:00.359><c> and</c><00:25:00.539><c> sisters,</c><00:25:01.099><c> but</c>

00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:02.059
do<00:25:01.579><c> we?</c>

00:25:02.059 --> 00:25:06.960
I<00:25:03.380><c> think</c><00:25:03.599><c> our</c><00:25:03.980><c> ecclesias</c><00:25:04.799><c> should</c><00:25:05.160><c> do</c><00:25:05.460><c> that.</c>

00:25:08.220 --> 00:25:10.420
And<00:25:08.299><c> the</c><00:25:08.400><c> reason</c><00:25:08.579><c> why</c><00:25:08.859><c> our</c><00:25:09.160><c> ecclesias</c><00:25:09.640><c> should</c><00:25:09.940><c> do</c><00:25:10.180><c> that</c>

00:25:10.420 --> 00:25:13.660
is<00:25:10.539><c> because</c><00:25:10.740><c> we</c><00:25:10.940><c> can't</c><00:25:11.420><c> just</c><00:25:11.859><c> ignore</c><00:25:12.539><c> people</c><00:25:13.079><c> when</c><00:25:13.279><c> they've</c>

00:25:13.660 --> 00:25:15.640
left<00:25:14.140><c> our</c><00:25:14.660><c> meeting.</c>

00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:19.200
They<00:25:17.019><c> are</c><00:25:17.339><c> our</c><00:25:17.799><c> special</c><00:25:18.319><c> responsibility.</c>

00:25:19.319 --> 00:25:21.779
They're<00:25:19.559><c> members</c><00:25:20.000><c> of</c><00:25:20.380><c> our</c><00:25:20.799><c> flock.</c>

00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:27.299
If<00:25:23.380><c> we</c><00:25:23.640><c> don't</c><00:25:23.880><c> offer</c><00:25:24.160><c> such</c><00:25:24.480><c> prayers</c><00:25:24.900><c> for</c><00:25:25.299><c> them,</c><00:25:25.559><c> then</c><00:25:25.819><c> who</c><00:25:26.059><c> will?</c>

00:25:28.359 --> 00:25:30.980
And<00:25:28.880><c> if</c><00:25:29.099><c> we</c><00:25:29.259><c> don't</c><00:25:29.480><c> offer</c><00:25:29.720><c> such</c><00:25:29.980><c> prayers,</c>

00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:35.140
then<00:25:32.440><c> maybe</c><00:25:32.779><c> we</c><00:25:32.920><c> have</c><00:25:33.279><c> never</c><00:25:33.539><c> learned</c><00:25:33.960><c> the</c><00:25:34.180><c> secret</c><00:25:34.519><c> of</c><00:25:34.700><c> the</c><00:25:34.880><c> shepherd</c>

00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:49.079
And<00:25:47.259><c> even</c><00:25:47.460><c> if</c><00:25:47.579><c> we</c><00:25:47.720><c> do</c><00:25:47.900><c> make</c><00:25:48.140><c> ecclesial</c><00:25:48.640><c> prayers,</c>

00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:51.680

There<00:28:30.019><c> are</c><00:28:30.240><c> things</c><00:28:30.440><c> we</c><00:28:30.579><c> can</c><00:28:30.779><c> do,</c><00:28:31.220><c> brothers</c><00:28:31.259><c> and</c><00:28:31.460><c> sisters,</c>

Now,<00:28:36.660><c> here's</c><00:28:37.359><c> a</c><00:28:37.599><c> really</c><00:28:37.900><c> good</c><00:28:38.160><c> question.</c>

00:28:40.900 --> 00:28:42.539
And<00:28:41.140><c> perhaps</c><00:28:41.440><c> I</c><00:28:41.640><c> should</c><00:28:41.839><c> therefore</c><00:28:42.220><c> say,</c>

00:28:42.539 --> 00:28:44.900
because<00:28:42.920><c> the</c><00:28:43.119><c> question</c><00:28:43.380><c> is</c><00:28:43.640><c> so</c><00:28:43.940><c> good,</c>

00:28:45.059 --> 00:28:47.859
I'm<00:28:45.500><c> not</c><00:28:45.660><c> at</c><00:28:45.819><c> all</c><00:28:46.059><c> sure</c><00:28:46.279><c> that</c><00:28:46.440><c> I</c><00:28:46.619><c> have</c><00:28:46.759><c> the</c><00:28:46.960><c> fullness</c><00:28:47.200><c> of</c><00:28:47.400><c> the</c><00:28:47.579><c> answer,</c>

but<00:28:48.000><c> I'm</c><00:28:48.200><c> going</c><00:28:48.319><c> to</c><00:28:48.460><c> endeavour</c><00:28:48.720><c> to</c><00:28:48.859><c> give</c><00:28:48.960><c> at</c><00:28:49.079><c> least</c>

00:28:49.500 --> 00:28:50.960
what<00:28:49.819><c> I</c><00:28:49.980><c> think</c><00:28:50.119><c> is</c><00:28:50.259><c> part</c><00:28:50.480><c> of</c><00:28:50.660><c> the</c><00:28:50.819><c> answer.</c>

00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:53.160
And<00:28:51.099><c> the</c><00:28:51.180><c> question,</c><00:28:51.619><c> brothers</c><00:28:51.759><c> and</c><00:28:51.960><c> sisters,</c><00:28:52.160><c> is</c><00:28:52.319><c> this.</c>

00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.319
How<00:28:54.019><c> do</c><00:28:54.140><c> we</c><00:28:54.359><c> distinguish</c><00:28:54.740><c> between</c><00:28:55.240><c> various</c><00:28:55.880><c> lost</c><00:28:56.220><c> ones</c>

00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:06.619
Oh,<00:29:03.240><c> now</c><00:29:03.680><c> there's</c><00:29:04.240><c> an</c><00:29:04.640><c> interesting</c><00:29:05.460><c> question.</c>

00:29:07.500 --> 00:29:10.039
And<00:29:07.799><c> you</c><00:29:07.940><c> know</c><00:29:08.079><c> that</c><00:29:08.240><c> I</c><00:29:08.480><c> think</c><00:29:08.619><c> that</c><00:29:08.839><c> the</c><00:29:09.099><c> answer</c><00:29:09.400><c> lies</c>

00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:14.220
in<00:29:10.900><c> these</c><00:29:11.400><c> parables</c><00:29:11.940><c> of</c><00:29:12.339><c> Luke</c><00:29:12.619><c> 15,</c><00:29:13.400><c> you</c><00:29:13.400><c> see.</c>

00:29:15.299 --> 00:29:17.079

where<00:32:32.500><c> simultaneously</c><00:32:33.380><c> two</c><00:32:34.019><c> brothers</c><00:32:34.960><c> began</c><00:32:35.680><c> to</c><00:32:35.940><c> not</c><00:32:36.099><c> attend</c>

00:32:36.420 --> 00:32:37.619
the<00:32:36.640><c> meeting.</c>

00:32:39.859 --> 00:32:41.839
Now<00:32:40.380><c> the</c><00:32:40.599><c> arranging</c><00:32:40.880><c> brethren</c><00:32:41.059><c> sat</c><00:32:41.319><c> down</c><00:32:41.599><c> and</c><00:32:41.720><c> said,</c>

00:32:42.019 --> 00:32:43.640
look,<00:32:42.180><c> we've</c><00:32:42.440><c> got</c><00:32:42.619><c> some</c><00:32:43.000><c> concerns</c><00:32:43.440><c> here.</c>

00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:47.039
It<00:32:43.819><c> appears</c><00:32:44.059><c> that</c><00:32:44.519><c> these</c><00:32:44.819><c> two</c><00:32:45.079><c> brethren</c><00:32:45.299><c> are</c><00:32:46.099><c> not</c><00:32:46.339><c> coming</c><00:32:46.519><c> along</c><00:32:46.779><c> as</c>

00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:48.720
frequently<00:32:47.359><c> as</c><00:32:47.559><c> they</c><00:32:47.819><c> should.</c>

00:32:50.460 --> 00:32:54.359
And<00:32:50.759><c> as</c><00:32:51.000><c> the</c><00:32:51.160><c> weeks</c><00:32:51.339><c> went</c><00:32:51.640><c> past</c><00:32:52.119><c> and</c><00:32:52.779><c> neither</c><00:32:53.099><c> brother</c><00:32:53.440><c> was</c>

00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:55.420
coming<00:32:54.599><c> along,</c>

00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:58.500
we<00:32:56.240><c> had</c><00:32:56.400><c> to</c><00:32:56.579><c> try</c><00:32:56.720><c> and</c><00:32:57.059><c> decide</c><00:32:57.339><c> in</c><00:32:57.460><c> a</c><00:32:57.519><c> bit</c><00:32:57.579><c> more</c><00:32:57.779><c> detail</c><00:32:58.119><c> what</c><00:32:58.259><c> it</c>

00:32:58.500 --> 00:32:59.400
was<00:32:58.660><c> that</c><00:32:58.799><c> we</c><00:32:58.900><c> were</c><00:32:59.099><c> facing.</c>

00:32:59.819 --> 00:33:04.019
And<00:33:00.339><c> the</c><00:33:00.539><c> first</c><00:33:00.880><c> brother</c><00:33:01.339><c> was</c><00:33:02.359><c> really</c><00:33:02.819><c> a</c><00:33:03.019><c> lost</c><00:33:03.339><c> sheep,</c><00:33:03.680><c> you</c><00:33:03.880><c> see,</c>

00:33:04.019 --> 00:33:07.660
because<00:33:04.339><c> what</c><00:33:04.599><c> happened</c><00:33:04.900><c> is</c><00:33:05.599><c> it</c><00:33:05.799><c> wasn't</c><00:33:06.059><c> that</c><00:33:06.220><c> he</c><00:33:06.319><c> was</c><00:33:06.640><c> hostile</c><00:33:07.140><c> to</c><00:33:07.339><c> the</c><00:33:07.519><c> truth,</c>

00:33:07.740 --> 00:33:09.460
it<00:33:07.819><c> wasn't</c><00:33:08.000><c> that</c><00:33:08.200><c> he</c><00:33:08.259><c> was</c><00:33:08.640><c> against</c><00:33:09.000><c> the</c><00:33:09.319><c> truth,</c>

00:33:09.500 --> 00:33:12.759
it<00:33:09.559><c> was</c><00:33:09.779><c> just</c><00:33:10.019><c> that</c><00:33:10.220><c> he</c><00:33:10.839><c> kept</c><00:33:11.099><c> on</c><00:33:11.420><c> wandering</c><00:33:11.700><c> away.</c>

00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:15.380
And<00:33:13.799><c> we</c><00:33:13.920><c> would</c><00:33:14.019><c> go</c><00:33:14.200><c> out</c><00:33:14.440><c> and</c><00:33:14.579><c> meet</c><00:33:14.700><c> with</c><00:33:14.900><c> our</c><00:33:15.059><c> brother</c><00:33:15.160><c> and</c><00:33:15.279><c> say,</c>

00:33:15.460 --> 00:33:16.859
you<00:33:15.500><c> really</c><00:33:15.819><c> should</c><00:33:15.900><c> be</c><00:33:16.059><c> at</c><00:33:16.160><c> the</c><00:33:16.299><c> meeting</c><00:33:16.559><c> brother.</c>

00:33:17.339 --> 00:33:18.859
And<00:33:17.500><c> sure</c><00:33:17.680><c> enough</c><00:33:17.839><c> he'd</c><00:33:18.019><c> come</c><00:33:18.200><c> back</c><00:33:18.380><c> to</c><00:33:18.539><c> the</c><00:33:18.680><c> meeting</c>

00:33:18.859 --> 00:33:20.960
and<00:33:19.000><c> for</c><00:33:19.119><c> the</c><00:33:19.220><c> next</c><00:33:19.440><c> few</c><00:33:19.619><c> weeks</c><00:33:19.859><c> or</c><00:33:20.059><c> few</c><00:33:20.220><c> months</c><00:33:20.519><c> he'd</c><00:33:20.680><c> be</c><00:33:20.819><c> at</c>

00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:21.339
the<00:33:21.119><c> meeting</c>

00:33:21.339 --> 00:33:23.180
and<00:33:21.539><c> he'd</c><00:33:21.759><c> turn</c><00:33:21.920><c> up</c><00:33:22.119><c> and</c><00:33:22.400><c> all</c><00:33:22.660><c> would</c><00:33:22.839><c> be</c><00:33:23.059><c> fine.</c>

00:33:23.319 --> 00:33:26.900
And<00:33:23.319><c> then</c><00:33:24.160><c> somehow</c><00:33:24.579><c> he'd</c><00:33:25.319><c> be</c><00:33:25.539><c> gone</c><00:33:25.759><c> again.</c>

00:33:28.740 --> 00:33:30.960
And<00:33:29.140><c> he</c><00:33:29.539><c> was</c><00:33:29.720><c> a</c><00:33:29.839><c> lost</c><00:33:30.099><c> sheep.</c>

00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:34.519
He<00:33:31.920><c> just</c><00:33:32.359><c> kept</c><00:33:33.319><c> wandering.</c>

00:33:35.079 --> 00:33:36.759
Well<00:33:35.200><c> this</c><00:33:35.359><c> actually</c><00:33:35.619><c> went</c><00:33:35.779><c> on</c><00:33:35.980><c> for</c><00:33:36.099><c> some</c><00:33:36.480><c> time</c>

00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:38.940
where<00:33:36.900><c> the</c><00:33:37.019><c> brother</c><00:33:37.160><c> would</c><00:33:37.640><c> disappear</c><00:33:38.140><c> and</c><00:33:38.279><c> we</c><00:33:38.440><c> would</c><00:33:38.559><c> go</c><00:33:38.779><c> and</c>

00:33:38.940 --> 00:33:39.400
speak<00:33:39.140><c> to</c><00:33:39.240><c> him</c>

00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:41.400
and<00:33:39.420><c> we'd</c><00:33:39.660><c> bring</c><00:33:39.779><c> him</c><00:33:39.960><c> back</c><00:33:40.160><c> and</c><00:33:40.259><c> he'd</c><00:33:40.519><c> disappear</c><00:33:40.920><c> and</c><00:33:41.059><c> we'd</c>

00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:42.440
bring<00:33:41.500><c> him</c><00:33:41.700><c> back.</c>

00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:45.599
And<00:33:43.559><c> by</c><00:33:43.740><c> the</c><00:33:43.900><c> way,</c><00:33:44.440><c> lost</c><00:33:44.500><c> sheep</c><00:33:44.720><c> are</c><00:33:44.859><c> like</c><00:33:45.019><c> that,</c><00:33:45.259><c> aren't</c><00:33:45.359><c> they?</c>

00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:48.059
Don't<00:33:46.079><c> ever</c><00:33:46.299><c> imagine</c><00:33:46.660><c> that</c><00:33:46.880><c> because</c><00:33:47.039><c> you've</c><00:33:47.299><c> found</c><00:33:47.480><c> them</c><00:33:47.680><c> once</c>

00:33:48.059 --> 00:33:50.980
that<00:33:48.299><c> necessarily</c><00:33:48.740><c> they</c><00:33:48.900><c> won't</c><00:33:49.099><c> be</c><00:33:49.559><c> wanderers</c><00:33:49.980><c> again.</c>

00:33:51.380 --> 00:33:53.539
They<00:33:51.579><c> most</c><00:33:51.839><c> likely</c><00:33:52.200><c> shall</c><00:33:52.539><c> be.</c>

00:33:56.339 --> 00:33:58.920
Now<00:33:56.700><c> the</c><00:33:56.779><c> funny</c><00:33:56.940><c> thing</c><00:33:57.119><c> is</c><00:33:57.359><c> that</c><00:33:57.799><c> the</c><00:33:58.019><c> other</c><00:33:58.220><c> brother</c><00:33:58.539><c> left</c>

00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:05.660
at<00:34:02.819><c> least</c><00:34:03.059><c> as</c><00:34:03.279><c> far</c><00:34:03.460><c> as</c><00:34:03.619><c> the</c><00:34:03.839><c> Ecclesia</c><00:34:04.099><c> was</c><00:34:04.339><c> concerned,</c>

00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:10.280
the<00:34:06.779><c> arranging</c><00:34:07.099><c> brethren</c><00:34:07.519><c> disfellowshipped</c><00:34:08.639><c> the</c><00:34:08.920><c> second</c><00:34:09.360><c> brother.</c>

00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:12.760
And<00:34:11.920><c> people</c><00:34:12.099><c> in</c><00:34:12.199><c> the</c><00:34:12.300><c> Ecclesia</c><00:34:12.539><c> said,</c>

00:34:12.860 --> 00:34:15.800
why<00:34:13.199><c> is</c><00:34:13.519><c> this</c><00:34:13.860><c> and</c><00:34:14.159><c> what</c><00:34:14.380><c> is</c><00:34:14.519><c> this</c><00:34:14.659><c> that</c><00:34:14.800><c> you</c><00:34:14.920><c> have</c><00:34:15.079><c> done?</c>

00:34:16.340 --> 00:34:17.719
You<00:34:16.500><c> have</c><00:34:16.739><c> disfellowshipped</c><00:34:17.300><c> this</c><00:34:17.559><c> brother</c>

00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:19.780
after<00:34:18.059><c> what</c><00:34:18.260><c> appears</c><00:34:18.579><c> to</c><00:34:18.760><c> be</c><00:34:18.880><c> a</c><00:34:19.019><c> short</c><00:34:19.199><c> period</c><00:34:19.460><c> of</c><00:34:19.639><c> time</c>

00:34:19.780 --> 00:34:21.840
and<00:34:19.900><c> yet</c><00:34:20.039><c> here's</c><00:34:20.239><c> this</c><00:34:20.420><c> other</c><00:34:20.599><c> brother</c><00:34:20.780><c> who's</c><00:34:21.039><c> still</c><00:34:21.300><c> wandering</c><00:34:21.559><c> in</c><00:34:21.780><c> and</c>

00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:22.179
out<00:34:21.860><c> of</c><00:34:21.960><c> the</c><00:34:22.019><c> meeting</c>

00:34:22.179 --> 00:34:23.579
and<00:34:22.539><c> nothing's</c><00:34:22.860><c> been</c><00:34:23.059><c> done</c><00:34:23.199><c> about</c><00:34:23.440><c> him.</c>

00:34:23.579 --> 00:34:26.260
This<00:34:23.719><c> is</c><00:34:24.039><c> not</c><00:34:24.440><c> consistent</c><00:34:25.000><c> or</c><00:34:25.320><c> fair</c><00:34:25.579><c> or</c><00:34:26.039><c> right.</c>

00:34:26.380 --> 00:34:28.159
But<00:34:26.599><c> the</c><00:34:26.800><c> difference</c><00:34:27.099><c> was,</c><00:34:27.619><c> brothers</c><00:34:27.699><c> and</c><00:34:27.900><c> sisters,</c>

00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:31.039
that<00:34:28.500><c> the</c><00:34:28.760><c> second</c><00:34:29.019><c> brother</c><00:34:29.219><c> was</c><00:34:29.400><c> not</c><00:34:29.699><c> a</c><00:34:29.739><c> lost</c><00:34:30.039><c> sheep.</c>

00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:35.940
He<00:34:32.719><c> was</c><00:34:32.980><c> a</c><00:34:33.059><c> lost</c><00:34:33.860><c> younger</c><00:34:34.880><c> son.</c>

00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:40.440
