lion_n to_o be_v make_v a_o dead_a dog_n be_v baseness_n enough_o therefore_o we_o may_v clear_o see_v by_o this_o that_o the_o seek_v of_o glory_n as_o solomon_n say_v be_v no_o glory_n but_o the_o

for_o i_o to_o speak_v of_o gedeon_n barak_n iphtah_n and_o samson_n these_o the_o holy_a ghost_n commend_v and_o though_o some_o of_o they_o as_o man_n do_v sometime_o fall_v yet_o we_o be_v to_o

see_v it_o meet_v for_o those_o age_n and_o so_o we_o be_v to_o think_v of_o this_o book_n where_o the_o deliverance_n from_o so_o great_a enemy_n as_o be_v mention_v herein_o be_v type_n of_o that_o great_a deliverance_n and_o redemption_n of_o man_n wrought_v by_o christ_n out_o of_o the_o jaw_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o let_v the_o commend_v of_o sundry_a of_o those_o judge_n by_o the_o holy_a

and_o be_v sanctify_v thereby_o beside_o what_o authority_n shall_v we_o give_v to_o the_o old_a testament_n if_o they_o who_o be_v commend_v in_o it_o to_o have_v be_v man_n of_o god_n as_o diverse_a

of_o their_o revolt_n and_o turn_v back_o again_o whereby_o may_v be_v see_v how_o corrupt_a they_o be_v both_o in_o religion_n and_o manner_n and_o this_o book_n be_v a_o lively_a glass_n if_o we_o
