thereunto_o when_o i_o do_v reflect_v love_v friend_n upon_o the_o passage_n of_o mr_n comeniu'ss_a letter_n which_o he_o write_v unto_o you_o when_o he_o send_v you_o this_o little_a treatise_n

as_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n in_o god_n way_n towards_o particular_a saint_n in_o their_o several_a occasion_n so_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o in_o the_o universal_a dispensation_n of_o trial_n towards_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o his_o church_n his_o course_n will_v not_o be_v different_a but_o altogether_o consonant_a unto_o this_o promise_n that_o as_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n

we_o may_v observe_v from_o hence_o that_o the_o same_o spirit_n who_o do_v raise_v the_o expectation_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o these_o part_n do_v also_o work_v the_o like_a thought_n elsewhere_o
