pass_v through_o very_a many_o difficulty_n danger_n and_o peril_n both_o of_o water_n and_o wild_a beast_n and_o now_o be_v come_v within_o sight_n of_o my_o city_n of_o rest_n i_o never_o intend_v to_o go_v back_o again_o then_o say_v he_o that_o speak_v unto_o he_o if_o thou_o will_v not_o go_v back_o again_o with_o we_o in_o our_o way_n thou_o must_v go_v no_o further_o on_o in_o thy_o way_n but_o rather_o than_o go_v forward_o towards_o the_o city_n thou_o shall_v die_v and_o then_o he_o speak_v to_o his_o companion_n to_o slay_v the_o poor_a man_n which_o at_o first_o he_o refuse_v and_o say_v i_o know_v no_o evil_n by_o he_o but_o say_v the_o other_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o i_o do_v and_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v ask_v of_o thou_o to_o have_v do_v it_o but_o i_o be_o a_o man_n

and_o know_v you_o this_o o_o you_o priest_n you_o above_o all_o man_n upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n have_v little_a cause_n to_o stir_v up_o persecution_n against_o we_o know_v how_o and_o in_o what_o manner_n we_o former_o suffer_v even_o in_o the_o day_n of_o your_o probation_n and_o who_o be_v most_o faithful_a to_o their_o principle_n then_o let_v god_n angel_n and_o man_n judge_v for_o we_o hold_v forth_o the_o same_o truth_n now_o as_o then_o and_o then_o as_o now_o but_o have_v it_o be_v so_o with_o you_o let_v god_n just_a witness_n in_o you_o speak_v and_o answer_v and_o

our_o back_n you_o call_v error_n what_o do_v you_o think_v will_v not_o the_o jesuit_n and_o friar_n in_o queen_n mary_n day_n rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o you_o and_o condemn_v you_o for_o as_o it_o stand_v upon_o record_n they_o do_v often_o visit_v they_o they_o false_o call_v heretic_n and_o use_v many_o endeavour_n to_o reclaim_v they_o and_o to_o save_v their_o life_n though_o

very_a offspring_n of_o that_o seed_n but_o what_o will_v it_o avail_v you_o when_o by_o your_o practice_n you_o be_v find_v protestant_a persecutor_n and_o indeed_o let_v no_o man_n admire_v why_o no_o more_o charity_n appear_v among_o you_o for_o this_o we_o have_v learn_v in_o god_n wisdom_n that_o the_o hawk_n and_o dove_n fly_v not_o in_o company_n together_o neither_o do_v the_o wolf_n
