place_n if_o we_o be_v not_o well_o assure_v of_o the_o cause_n for_o which_o we_o fight_v for_o when_o the_o question_n be_v of_o forsake_v our_o life_n we_o must_v be_v well_o resolve_v and_o

to_o be_v hold_v for_o frenzy_n then_o for_o christian_a zeal_n as_o also_o in_o very_a deed_n there_o be_v no_o staidness_n not_o settle_v understanding_n in_o such_o people_n which_o so_o cast_v

so_o much_o as_o he_o can_v not_o deny_v his_o own_o truth_n now_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o on_o our_o part_n we_o have_v a_o certain_a and_o undoubted_a testimony_n of_o the_o doctrine_n for_o which_o we_o suffer_v therefore_o as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o can_v be_v move_v nor_o earnest_o touch_v by_o any_o exhortation_n which_o may_v be_v make_v unto_o we_o to_o suffer_v persecution_n for_o

when_o we_o shall_v do_v it_o it_o shall_v be_v nothing_o but_o rashness_n and_o not_o any_o christian_a virtue_n final_o god_n will_v allow_v nothing_o of_o all_o that_o we_o shall_v do_v unless_o

notwithstanding_o all_o these_o devise_n how_o they_o may_v set_v let_n and_o stop_v before_o themselves_o that_o they_o come_v not_o too_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v although_o they_o find_v not_o

sufficient_a enough_o to_o tame_v all_o those_o who_o will_v not_o through_o obstinate_a malice_n resist_v god_n wherefore_o let_v those_o which_o see_v they_o seles_o to_o be_v so_o beset_v with_o

not_o to_o stop_v their_o passage_n and_o too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v more_o full_o understande_v this_o matter_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n cause_v his_o child_n to_o seek_v he_o not_o in_o the_o goodly_a meadow_n or_o in_o those_o same_o pleasant_a and_o beautiful_a shadow_n but_o even_o by_o sharp_a &_o rough_a path_n by_o rocky_a and_o stony_a place_n through_o waste_n and_o hideous_a region_n and_o all_o this_o he_o do_v too_o exercise_v their_o faith_n and_o to_o try_v their_o zeal_n and_o desire_n which_o they_o have_v too_o come_v unto_o he_o although_o then_o that_o

with_o his_o faithful_a one_o and_o let_v we_o be_v of_o good_a courage_n to_o follow_v those_o which_o have_v go_v long_a time_n before_o us._n the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o there_o ought_v to_o
