gospel_n be_v also_o spread_v among_o the_o gentile_n the_o apostle_n be_v so_o careful_a to_o make_v collection_n in_o all_o the_o church_n for_o the_o relief_n of_o the_o poor_a saint_n at_o

observe_v it_o and_o to_o that_o end_n he_o forbid_v they_o altogether_o to_o drink_v any_o wine_n lest_o desire_v thereof_o may_v occasion_v they_o to_o plant_v vineyard_n and_o so_o to_o build_v house_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v and_o so_o to_o forsake_v the_o custom_n of_o their_o nation_n as_o perhaps_o licorousness_n of_o wine_n before_o have_v cause_v many_o of_o they_o to_o do_v for_o

which_o they_o bind_v themselves_o unto_o but_o a_o maintenance_n of_o a_o civil_a custom_n and_o therefore_o the_o wild_a arabian_n and_o tartar_n who_o at_o this_o day_n live_v in_o like_a manner_n

especial_o those_o of_o the_o ancient_a form_n as_o to_o separate_v themselves_o unto_o the_o lord_n to_o drink_v neither_o wine_n nor_o strong_a drink_n nor_o suffer_v a_o razor_n to_o come_v upon_o their_o head_n and_o to_o be_v account_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n holy_a unto_o god_n above_o other_o man_n i_o answer_v if_o this_o be_v the_o sample_n from_o which_o monkery_n be_v derive_v there_o need_v no_o other_o argument_n utter_o to_o overthrow_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v as_o ill_o choose_v as_o can_v be_v for_o this_o law_n of_o nazarism_n be_v one_o of_o the_o thing_n
