00:07:46.860 --> 00:07:48.060
firstly

00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:51.860
So<00:07:48.819><c> that</c><00:07:48.959><c> he</c><00:07:49.180><c> can</c><00:07:49.420><c> recognize</c><00:07:50.199><c> those</c><00:07:50.899><c> individuals</c>

00:07:57.860 --> 00:08:03.600
Unfortunately,<00:07:59.740><c> this</c><00:07:59.899><c> is</c><00:08:00.139><c> needfully</c><00:08:00.540><c> even</c><00:08:00.720><c> in</c><00:08:00.920><c> a</c><00:08:01.040><c> casual</c><00:08:01.319><c> life</c><00:08:02.060><c> and</c>

00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:06.860
Secondly<00:08:04.160><c> so</c><00:08:04.660><c> that</c><00:08:04.800><c> in</c><00:08:05.079><c> recognizing</c><00:08:05.660><c> the</c><00:08:06.139><c> characteristics</c>

00:08:20.449 --> 00:08:25.189
But<00:08:21.009><c> to</c><00:08:21.269><c> repudiate</c><00:08:21.870><c> those</c><00:08:22.370><c> principles</c><00:08:22.990><c> in</c><00:08:24.009><c> his</c><00:08:24.189><c> own</c><00:08:24.410><c> life</c>

00:08:25.910 --> 00:08:28.329
So<00:08:26.470><c> that</c><00:08:26.589><c> he</c><00:08:26.709><c> might</c><00:08:26.889><c> be</c><00:08:27.089><c> a</c><00:08:27.250><c> wise</c><00:08:27.490><c> king</c>

00:08:30.290 --> 00:08:35.370
Now<00:08:30.850><c> take</c><00:08:31.089><c> this</c><00:08:31.310><c> six</c><00:08:31.649><c> by</c><00:08:31.870><c> way</c><00:08:32.009><c> of</c><00:08:32.190><c> illustration</c><00:08:32.750><c> he</c><00:08:33.450><c> that</c><00:08:33.850><c> sendeth</c><00:08:34.549><c> a</c>

00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:40.919
That<00:13:38.960><c> may</c><00:13:39.179><c> just</c><00:13:39.360><c> be</c><00:13:39.639><c> ourselves</c>
