37NeverthelessG1161 he thatG3739 standethG2476 stedfastG1476 inG1722 his heartG3588G2588, havingG2192 noG3361 necessityG318, butG1161 hathG2192 powerG1849 overG4012 his ownG3588G2398 willG2307, andG2532 hathG2919 soG3778 decreedG2919 inG1722 hisG846 heartG3588G2588 that he will keepG3588G5083 hisG1438 virginG3588G3933, doethG4160 wellG2573.
