to_o the_o child_n or_o people_n of_o israel_n as_o though_o he_o give_v his_o law_n but_o to_o they_o only_o the_o which_o notwithstanding_o even_o as_o it_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o do_v no_o

if_o it_o be_v a_o work_n whereby_o thy_o neighbour_n receive_v any_o comfort_n or_o help_v in_o his_o person_n it_o be_v then_o so_o much_o the_o more_o profitable_a wherefore_o albeit_o that_o the_o
