to_o mind_n gentle_a reader_n the_o tyrannical_a persecution_n and_o cruel_a martyrdom_n perpetrate_v in_o the_o bloody_a and_o pitiless_a reign_n of_o queen_n marie_n imagine_v withal_o thou_o see_v as_o then_o to_o the_o grief_n of_o many_o thousand_o be_v see_v the_o torment_a furnace_n of_o nabuchadnezer_n glow_v hot_a scorch_a and_o consume_v the_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o christ_n dear_a saint_n and_o bless_a martyr_n for_o profess_v y_o e_o truth_n ofhis_fw-la gospel_n imagine_v thou_o hear_v and_o see_v though_o to_o thy_o small_a edification_n or_o profit_n the_o administration_n of_o his_o bless_a word_n and_o sacrament_n in_o a_o tongue_n to_o thou_o unknown_a imagine_v thou_o see_v divine_a honour_n and_o spiritual_a adoration_n perform_v to_o stock_n and_o stone_n and_o
