Or, the stilts, or most childish chapin of knowledge upon which William Appolonius of Trever, and minister of the church of Middleburgh boasts, among such as are ignorant, in his patcht rhapsodies, which hee set forth concerning supreame power and jurisdiction in matters of religion.

not_o i_o will_v make_v thou_o a_o god_n to_o moses_n but_o contrary_o i_o will_v make_v moses_n a_o god_n to_o thou_o whence_o we_o see_v that_o god_n from_o the_o beginning_n do_v not_o purpose_n

out_o of_o the_o principle_n of_o walachrian_a divinity_n this_o title_n of_o god_n belong_v rather_o to_o churchman_n than_o to_o magistrate_n for_o these_o as_o sheep_n shall_v be_v subject_a to_o
