when_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v take_v than_o the_o soul_n of_o many_o be_v in_o danger_n when_o the_o gospel_n be_v go_v your_o soul_n be_v in_o hazard_n there_o be_v cause_n of_o sadness_n 4._o then_o do_v the_o enemy_n of_o god_n blaspheme_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v where_o be_v your_o god_n then_o do_v the_o enemy_n of_o god_n triumph_n psal._n 42._o 10._o as_o with_o a_o sword_n in_o

that_o god_n suffer_v the_o ark_n to_o be_v take_v he_o know_v that_o his_o not_o punish_v his_o two_o son_n be_v one_o great_a cause_n of_o that_o great_a slaughter_n the_o people_n of_o israel_n

and_o therefore_o mr._n bradford_n that_o bless_a martyr_n say_v in_o his_o prayer_n lord_n it_o be_v my_o unthankfulness_n for_o the_o gospel_n that_o bring_v in_o popery_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n

i_o tell_v you_o there_o be_v not_o one_o sin_n for_o which_o god_n ever_o take_v away_o the_o ark_n from_o any_o people_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o england_n do_v the_o church_n of_o
