to_o the_o reader_n among_o all_o the_o misery_n that_o attend_v our_o humane_a frailty_n there_o be_v none_o to_o be_v so_o much_o bewail_v as_o the_o stupidity_n of_o our_o mind_n which_o render_v

all_o christian_n be_v bind_v to_o believe_v under_o the_o peril_n of_o damnation_n and_o all_o this_o be_v because_o man_n have_v presumptuous_a mind_n in_o trust_v to_o their_o own_o understanding_n
