not_o but_o see_v but_o those_o book_n will_v at_o last_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o unwilling_a come_v forth_o in_o the_o vulgar_a language_n nor_o can_v they_o hinder_v but_o they_o will_v every_o where_n happen_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o heathen_a therefore_o that_o it_o will_v be_v far_o better_o that_o a_o version_n shall_v come_v forth_o by_o their_o care_n and_o authority_n which_o may_v be_v according_a to_o their_o pleasure_n than_o that_o some_o shall_v come_v forth_o in_o one_o place_n and_o some_o in_o another_o which_o perhaps_o may_v turn_v to_o the_o disgrace_n of_o the_o holy_a text_n or_o to_o the_o danger_n and_o reproach_n of_o the_o nation_n or_o may_v too_o much_o lay_v open_a the_o holy_a mystery_n among_o the_o heathen_a by_o these_o author_n and_o by_o these_o reason_n i_o confess_v ingenuous_o it_o be_v my_o opinion_n that_o that_o version_n be_v make_v which_o go_v about_o under_o the_o name_n of_o the_o seventy_o nor_o be_v there_o some_o thing_n want_v in_o the_o version_n itself_o which_o hint_n some_o such_o council_n in_o the_o publish_n of_o it_o for_o iu._n even_o a_o blear_a eye_n may_v see_v clear_o enough_o that_o it_o be_v hammer_v out_o and_o dress_v with_o more_o caution_n than_o conscience_n more_o craft_n than_o sincerity_n 1._o that_o as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v the_o holy_a book_n may_v remain_v free_a from_o any_o reproach_n or_o cavil_v of_o the_o heathen_a 2._o that_o they_o may_v soften_v some_o thing_n which_o may_v be_v injurious_a to_o the_o jewish_a nation_n either_o as_o to_o their_o peace_n or_o reputation_n or_o which_o may_v create_v offence_n to_o the_o gentile_n 3._o that_o the_o mystery_n and_o the_o bare_a truth_n of_o the_o holy_a book_n may_v be_v reveal_v as_o little_a as_o possible_o can_v be_v to_o the_o heathen_a all_o which_o may_v be_v demonstrate_v by_o such_o numberless_a example_n as_o to_o leave_v no_o occasion_n to_o doubt_v of_o that_o matter_n behind_o it_o by_o these_o and_o the_o like_a caution_n and_o subtlety_n be_v that_o version_n make_v where_o in_o the_o translator_n have_v less_o care_n that_o the_o interpretation_n shall_v come_v out_o sincere_a and_o true_a but_o provision_n be_v chief_o make_v that_o any_o thing_n shall_v be_v thrust_v upon_o the_o gentile_n so_o it_o be_v without_o danger_n and_o that_o the_o glory_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o jewish_a nation_n may_v be_v maintain_v and_o may_v it_o be_v allow_v i_o to_o speak_v out_o what_o i_o think_v among_o the_o various_a copy_n and_o edition_n of_o this_o version_n which_o go_v about_o i_o do_v not_o esteem_v that_o copy_n for_o the_o most_o genuine_a which_o come_v near_a to_o the_o hebrew_n text_n but_o that_o which_o come_v near_a to_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o translator_n in_o such_o like_a caution_n it_o be_v say_v as_o we_o see_v before_o that_o when_o the_o five_o elder_n have_v turn_v the_o law_n that_o day_n be_v bitter_a to_o israel_n as_o the_o day_n wherein_o the_o golden_a calf_n be_v make_v and_o why_o because_o the_o law_n can_v not_o be_v turn_v according_a to_o all_o thing_n convenient_a to_o it_o do_v their_o grief_n arise_v hence_o because_o it_o be_v not_o turn_v nor_o can_v not_o be_v clear_o exact_o and_o evident_o enough_o that_o the_o heathen_a may_v see_v the_o full_a and_o open_a light_n of_o it_o who_o will_v believe_v that_o this_o ever_o be_v the_o jew_n desire_n or_o wish_v but_o their_o trouble_n proceed_v rather_o from_o hence_o that_o those_o five_o have_v not_o translate_v it_o cunning_o wary_o and_o crafty_o enough_o as_o the_o gentile_n be_v to_o be_v deal_v withal_o of_o this_o matter_n there_o be_v care_n enough_o take_v in_o this_o version_n the_o author_n set_v all_o their_o strength_n and_o wit_n on_o work_n that_o according_a to_o their_o own_o pleasure_n it_o may_v come_v forth_o such_o as_o they_o will_v have_v it_o and_o may_v serve_v their_o purpose_n both_o as_o to_o themselves_o and_o as_o to_o the_o gentile_n this_o they_o establish_v and_o strengthen_v by_o their_o own_o authority_n not_o as_o a_o pure_a version_n and_o such_o as_o be_v to_o be_v recommend_v to_o their_o countryman_n but_o as_o fit_a enough_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n and_o satisfy_v the_o curiosity_n of_o the_o heathen_a and_o lest_o any_o among_o they_o may_v attempt_v another_o in_o which_o those_o caution_n and_o provision_n may_v not_o be_v sufficient_o observe_v this_o they_o lay_v up_o in_o their_o sanhedrin_n and_o synagogue_n that_o it_o may_v be_v ready_a and_o show_v to_o the_o heathen_a as_o a_o symbol_n and_o token_n of_o the_o jewish_a law_n i'faith_o and_o religion_n if_o at_o any_o time_n the_o matter_n and_o necessity_n call_v for_o some_o such_o thing_n we_o grant_v therefore_o to_o justin_n martyr_n that_o that_o version_n be_v in_o the_o synagogue_n and_o hand_n of_o the_o jew_n but_o one_o will_v not_o conclude_v from_o that_o that_o it_o be_v read_v in_o the_o
