A53656	An answer to the rector of Bury's letter to his friend wherein is shewed that has effectually, tho' unwllingly acquitted the dissenters from his malicious charge of their being corrupters of the Word of God, that his attempts against the titles of the Psalms and Hebrew Bibles are feeble and inconsistent / by James Owen.	Owen, James, 1654-1706.	1699 (1699)	Wing O705; ESTC R38158	19,581	26

a_o story_n or_o king_n james_n the_o first_o as_o some_o of_o his_o noble_n be_v exercise_v themselves_o at_o leap_v lay_v the_o king_n pleasant_o to_o they_o you_o talk_v of_o leap_v i_o will_v

over_o it_o hold_v man_n reply_v the_o king_n i_o do_v not_o say_v i_o can_v leap_v over_o it_o but_o i_o will_v do_v it_o that_o be_v if_o i_o be_v able_a the_o rector_n show_v his_o good_a will_n to_o confirm_v his_o assertion_n and_o have_v make_v some_o feeble_a attempt_n in_o his_o r._n r._n to_o attack_v the_o masora_n the_o fence_n of_o the_o law_n levita_n law_n masora_n est_fw-la

wise_o decline_v it_o lest_o he_o shall_v break_v his_o shin_n and_o be_v force_v to_o a_o dishonourable_a retreat_n but_o be_v he_o in_o earnest_n when_o he_o say_v the_o hebrew_n bibles_n have_v

and_o he_o have_v not_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v corrupt_v then_o our_o bible_n must_v be_v corrupt_a indeed_o if_o every_o age_n have_v be_v practise_v upon_o '_o they_o according_a to_o the_o

in_o the_o corrupt_v must_v be_v a_o very_a corrupt_a thing_n at_o last_o the_o rector_n swoue_v at_o least_o have_v pay_v as_o much_o deference_n to_o the_o holy_a bible_n as_o he_o will_v to_o the_o
