strengthen_v &_o make_v joyful_a and_o that_o be_v not_o do_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n but_o only_o by_o the_o gospel_n this_o be_v a_o cheerful_a &_o happy_a tiding_n that_o christ_n have_v satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n this_o belong_v to_o the_o poor_a say_v christ_n this_o be_v my_o intent_n for_o with_o the_o righteouse_a i_o have_v no_o place_n which_o will_v not_o be_v rebuke_v as_o sinner_n which_o persecute_v the_o gospel_n &_o condemn_v it_o as_o heresi_n say_v that_o good_a work_n be_v forbid_v thereby_o &_o that_o these_o word_n be_v blasphemous_a against_o moses_n &_o the_o law_n wherefore_o christ_n say_v after_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o be_v not_o offend_v by_o i_o you_o true_o bless_v for_o all_o the_o world_n be_v offend_v with_o this_o king_n offence_n &_o wish_v that_o he_o may_v soon_o be_v confound_v for_o they_o say_v that_o he_o turn_v all_o up_o side_n down_o that_o he_o condemn_v the_o righteous_a and_o suffer_v they_o not_o to_o be_v in_o his_o kingdom_n that_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o geve_v heaven_n to_o the_o sinner_n what_o kind_n of_o doctrine_n be_v this_o say_v they_o wherein_o be_v no_o respect_n of_o good_a work_n and_o wherein_o the_o wicked_a have_v such_o a_o easy_a way_n to_o heaven_n christ_n can_v not_o be_v scotfree_a from_o this_o slander_n amongst_o his_o own_o neither_o can_v we_o be_v where_o as_o we_o be_v so_o bacbit_v of_o our_o adversary_n that_o we_o teach_v against_o good_a work_n &_o make_v the_o way_n of_o salvation_n to_o easy_a but_o in_o this_o place_n be_v a_o sentence_n bless_a be_v he_o that_o be_v not_o offend_v in_o i_o for_o if_o thou_o consider_v christ_n doctrine_n well_o thou_o shall_v perceive_v that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v not_o against_o good_a work_n as_o the_o papistical_a do_v false_o report_v this_o by_o us._n this_o we_o teach_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v necessary_a and_o earnest_o to_o be_v care_v for_o that_o nothing_o may_v be_v do_v against_o the_o word_n and_o conscience_n wherefore_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o disannul_v the_o civil_a power_n it_o do_v not_o abrogate_v the_o office_n of_o the_o magistrate_n why_o then_o do_v it_o offend_v thou_o and_o why_o do_v thou_o imagine_v that_o it_o forbid_v good_a work_v the_o gospel_n do_v not_o disallow_v neither_o forbydde_v good_a work_n they_o but_o it_o forbid_v this_o that_o when_o we_o must_v now_o dye_v and_o depart_v into_o a_o other_o life_n and_o when_o we_o be_v bring_v to_o our_o straits_n that_o then_o we_o put_v no_o trust_n in_o our_o own_o rightuousnes_n &_o work_n &_o that_o we_o have_v no_o more_o succour_n remain_v but_o only_o in_o christ_n and_o must_v stycke_v to_o his_o merit_n and_o satisfaction_n only_o that_o by_o he_o we_o obtain_v grace_n and_o everlasting_a life_n for_o god_n geve_v such_o a_o body_n unto_o we_o to_o this_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v idle_a as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v that_o we_o walk_v on_o our_o foot_n put_v our_o hand_n to_o work_v that_o we_o speak_v with_o the_o mouth_n and_o see_v with_o our_o eye_n etc._n etc._n and_o for_o this_o have_v he_o put_v forth_o his_o word_n the_o ten_o commandment_n that_o we_o may_v compare_v all_o our_o work_n with_o they_o and_o not_o do_v contrary_a to_o his_o glory_n and_o the_o profit_n of_o our_o neighbour_n this_o gospel_n do_v not_o only_a permyt_n but_o also_o command_v we_o to_o do_v it_o diligent_o but_o now_o when_o a_o man_n be_v alone_o and_o void_a of_o all_o these_o thing_n and_o goth_v out_o of_o the_o world_n to_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n then_o do_v the_o gospel_n teach_v the_o to_o go_v a_o other_o way_n about_o wherefore_o if_o thou_o haste_v do_v that_o be_v godly_a in_o thy_o life_n thou_o can_v not_o maintain_v otherways_o the_o name_n of_o godliness_n in_o this_o life_n thou_o must_v thank_v god_n for_o that_o gift_n but_o in_o death_n beware_v that_o thou_o put_v no_o trust_n in_o this_o godliness_n as_o though_o thou_o have_v deserve_v heaven_n thereby_o but_o yield_v thyself_o whole_o to_o this_o king_n jesus_n christ_n who_o office_n it_o be_v as_z say_v the_o evangelist_n to_o help_v the_o blind_a lame_a lepres_n the_o deaf_a and_o dead_a to_o preach_v to_o the_o poor_a that_o be_v to_o comfort_v the_o trouble_v conscience_n for_o he_o be_v send_v from_o god_n the_o father_n not_o to_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n but_o to_o profit_v we_o to_o susteyn_a and_o comfort_n us._n they_o that_o will_v not_o use_v he_o after_o this_o sort_n but_o be_v offend_v rather_o with_o he_o and_o despise_v he_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o hypocrite_n do_v yet_o to_o this_o day_n those_o shall_v he_o repress_v at_o his_o tyme._n and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o offence_n that_o be_v to_o be_v avoid_v then_o also_o be_v christ_n a_o offence_n when_o man_n dare_v not_o confess_v he_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o fall_v from_o he_o in_o temptation_n furthermore_o it_o be_v call_v a_o offence_n when_o we_o have_v more_o respect_n to_o our_o hart_n and_o conscience_n &_o what_o be_v their_o intent_n than_o to_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v when_o the_o sorrow_n of_o our_o work_n &_o sin_v be_v great_a than_o comfort_n for_o christ_n mercy_n sake_n this_o be_v the_o common_a offence_n whereby_o all_o christian_a man_n at_o vex_a preacher_n so_o be_v christ_n every_o where_o in_o the_o world_n a_o offenceful_a teacher_n as_o he_o will_v show_v more_o plain_o after_o this_o gospel_n that_o man_n by_o this_o doctrine_n be_v offend_v &_o begin_v to_o despise_v and_o persecute_v it_o and_o that_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v judge_v for_o this_o the_o sermon_n of_o the_o three_o city_n capernaum_n corazim_n &_o bethsaida_n do_v declare_v likewise_o the_o grevous_a complaint_n of_o christ_n against_o the_o jew_n be_v this_o where_o he_o declare_v john_n that_o rigorouse_a teacher_n of_o repentance_n do_v eat_v only_a honey_n and_o locust_n drink_v water_n &_o live_v a_o hard_a life_n but_o what_o prevail_v he_o thereby_o you_o say_v that_o he_o have_v a_o devil_n but_o i_o say_v he_o eat_v drink_v &_o show_v myself_o most_o full_a of_o humanity_n to_o all_o man_n &_o they_o call_v i_o a_o drinker_n of_o wine_n the_o adder_n be_v so_o froward_a that_o no_o man_n can_v satisfy_v they_o if_o a_o man_n live_v at_o liberty_n he_o be_v blame_v if_o he_o lyve_v straight_o he_o can_v not_o please_v they_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v then_o to_o please_v the_o froward_a world_n it_o will_v be_v please_v very_o well_o if_o all_o that_o it_o do_v be_v allow_v where_o as_o never_o the_o less_o it_o do_v nothing_o that_o good_a be_v such_o offence_n must_v be_v patient_o suffer_v for_o if_o it_o be_v in_o such_o a_o hard_a case_n when_o christ_n teach_v himself_o thereof_o &_o all_o thing_n be_v full_a of_o his_o miracle_n that_o the_o blind_a do_v see_v the_o lame_a go_v the_o dead_a rise_n &_o it_o yet_o can_v nothing_o prevail_v hereby_o but_o that_o the_o word_n be_v despise_v yea_o rather_o christ_n the_o auctor_fw-la of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v most_o shameful_o crucify_v the_o apostle_n drive_v out_o of_o jury_n &_o no_o where_o safe_a in_o all_o the_o world_n for_o this_o word_n sake_n what_o marvel_n be_v it_o then_o if_o the_o world_n hate_v the_o gospel_n without_o mercy_n &_o resist_v it_o &_o handle_v it_o most_o vilainous_o such_o be_v the_o fortune_n of_o christ_n &_o his_o apostle_n at_o that_o time_n so_o that_o it_o may_v seem_v more_o marvellous_a in_o they_o because_o they_o do_v not_o only_o preach_v but_o also_o wrought_v many_o notable_a &_o famous_a miracle_n wherefore_o we_o must_v endevoure_v oure self_o to_o bear_v this_o misery_n of_o the_o world_n and_o to_o take_v this_o rudeness_n well_o a_o worth_n for_o the_o fortune_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v never_o be_v otherwise_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n wherewith_o man_n be_v always_o offend_v and_o they_o be_v not_o of_o the_o common_a sort_n but_o man_n very_o holy_a righteous_a wise_a and_o mighty_a in_o the_o world_n as_o experience_n teach_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o knowledge_n that_o this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n they_o be_v in_o good_a case_n and_o have_v both_o comfort_n and_o help_n against_o these_o offence_n but_o they_o that_o know_v it_o not_o be_v inflame_v for_o their_o good_a work_n sake_n they_o fall_v from_o this_o word_n to_o their_o own_o righteousness_n and_o think_v that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v full_a of_o offence_n and_o sedition_n and_o this_o it_o be_v to_o stumble_v and_o be_v offend_v and_o yet_o it_o chance_v to_o they_o which_o before_o the_o world_n be_v count_v most_o holy_a wherefore_o we_o have_v a_o just_a cause_n to_o complain_v with_o christ_n of_o the_o
faith_n be_v sufficient_a but_o we_o must_v do_v good_a work_n and_o so_o they_o make_v not_o the_o holiness_n of_o christ_n their_o ground_n and_o pillar_n as_o john_n dydde_v which_o be_v glad_a to_o forgo_v his_o own_o holiness_n and_o count_v it_o not_o so_o much_o worthy_a as_o the_o clout_n wherewith_o dirty_a shoe_n be_v make_v clean_o he_o testify_v plain_o that_o his_o holiness_n be_v not_o so_o much_o worth_n as_o a_o vile_a clout_n and_o how_o much_o less_o worthy_a do_v he_o judge_v it_o to_o wipe_v christ_n nose_n work_n and_o to_o do_v any_o high_a office_n this_o do_v the_o pope_n and_o his_o church_n refuse_v to_o do_v they_o extol_v them self_o high_o with_o their_o work_n and_o that_o they_o have_v everlasting_a life_n for_o they_o and_o can_v not_o abide_v that_o their_o work_n and_o holiness_n shall_v be_v count_v as_o vile_a clout_n yea_o rather_o they_o doubt_v whether_o they_o may_v judge_v christ_n worthy_a to_o have_v this_o holiness_n give_v in_o stead_n of_o alm_n and_o sacrifice_n this_o hear_v the_o jew_n but_o they_o despise_v and_o persecute_v it_o and_o unto_o this_o time_n be_v not_o this_o contempt_n and_o persecution_n leave_v but_o as_o this_o madness_n chance_v to_o the_o jew_n destruction_n so_o shall_v it_o by_o god_n grace_n chance_n to_o the_o papist_n wherefore_o we_o must_v diligent_o mark_v this_o example_n where_o as_o john_n that_o most_o holieste_a man_n which_o as_o christ_n say_v have_v none_o like_o he_o amongst_o all_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o woman_n 116_o which_o pass_v all_o mounke_n and_o priest_n far_o yet_o do_v he_o so_o demitte_v and_o humble_v himself_o and_o say_v that_o he_o with_o all_o his_o holiness_n and_o work_n be_v not_o worthy_a to_o be_v as_o a_o clout_n to_o wipe_v shoe_n true_o this_o example_n be_v worthy_a to_o be_v follow_v good_a work_n must_v be_v do_v and_o that_o with_o great_a diligence_n work_n for_o so_o have_v god_n command_v in_o the_o ten_o precept_n but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o that_o point_n that_o we_o must_v entreat_v of_o this_o man_n as_o john_n do_v all_o be_v to_o be_v cast_v down_o at_o his_o foot_n &_o we_o must_v confess_v hearty_o with_o john_n that_o it_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o do_v he_o the_o least_o service_n that_o be_v before_o man_n judgement_n hereof_o be_v have_v chief_a respect_n that_o thou_o be_v no_o advouterer_n no_o thief_n no_o robber_n that_o thou_o geve_v alm_n that_o thou_o serve_v well_o in_o thy_o vocation_n these_o thing_n be_v boast_v of_o amongst_o man_n and_o have_v in_o high_a estimation_n but_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v try_v in_o the_o sight_n and_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v not_o loath_a to_o say_v this_o o_o lord_n i_o know_v that_o before_o thou_o the_o excellent_a thing_n in_o i_o be_v nothing_o worth_a wherefore_o judge_v i_o not_o accord_v to_o my_o work_n i_o be_o willinge_v to_o bide_v the_o loss_n of_o they_o and_o can_v wish_v no_o better_a thing_n if_o so_o be_v i_o may_v have_v my_o desire_n therein_o i_o may_v think_v myself_o well_o bless_v so_o do_v paul_n also_o to_o the_o philippi_n i_o be_o say_v he_o a_o israelite_n 3._o after_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o law_n a_o pharisei_n and_o as_o touch_v righteousness_n unblameable_a so_o that_o no_o man_n can_v reprove_v i_o it_o be_v not_o much_o see_v that_o one_o shall_v stand_v so_o in_o these_o thing_n against_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n yet_o he_o say_v i_o think_v all_o this_o but_o chyppe_n and_o all_o my_o trust_n and_o comfort_n rest_v herein_o that_o i_o may_v be_v find_v not_o have_v my_o own_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o the_o law_n but_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n in_o christ_n which_o righteousness_n belong_v to_o faith_n as_o god_n say_v wherefore_o that_o i_o may_v take_v fruit_n of_o this_o man_n i_o cast_v away_o all_o my_o own_o righteousness_n as_o chip_n the_o say_n of_o paul_n be_v more_o contumelious_a against_o good_a work_n they_o johns_n for_o he_o be_v content_a to_o suffer_v they_o to_o be_v esteem_v clout_n but_o paul_n name_v they_o very_a chip_n paryng_n or_o scrapyng_n paul_n the_o apostle_n nothing_o fear_v the_o reproach_n of_o uncivilitie_n whereas_o he_o use_v such_o unpure_a word_n such_o example_n be_v very_o necessary_a to_o maintain_v the_o study_n of_o honesty_n and_o soberness_n before_o the_o world_n that_o man_n may_v not_o have_v any_o cause_n to_o reprove_v us._n this_o righteousness_n be_v belong_v to_o this_o life_n and_o have_v his_o end_n with_o this_o life_n as_o it_o be_v know_v good_a man_n be_v put_v into_o the_o grave_n as_o well_o as_o the_o evil_a the_o matron_n as_o well_o as_o the_o harlot_n but_o when_o thou_o will_v make_v thou_o a_o way_n to_o everlasting_a life_n say_v this_o christ_n be_v my_o refuge_n and_o his_o righteousness_n which_o he_o promise_v and_o geve_v in_o baptism_n by_o his_o word_n and_o in_o the_o supper_n by_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n work_n at_o last_o i_o shall_v stand_v by_o he_o as_o a_o poor_a worm_n that_o so_o by_o this_o mean_n there_o may_v be_v put_v a_o difference_n between_o our_o righteousness_n which_o consist_v in_o the_o function_n of_o this_o common_a life_n and_o between_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v before_o god_n the_o ethnyke_v also_o have_v show_v honesty_n and_o soberness_n in_o their_o lyvinge_n and_o do_v and_o suffer_v many_o thing_n for_o their_o native_a country_n for_o the_o which_o they_o have_v their_o due_a renown_n but_o when_o death_n come_v nothing_o thereof_o will_v step_v forth_o to_o take_v their_o part_n for_o by_o such_o righteousness_n and_o good_a work_n we_o can_v not_o attain_v to_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o whither_o must_v we_o then_o go_v for_o righteousness_n and_o such_o holiness_n that_o be_v accept_v before_o god_n and_o allow_v in_o the_o everlasting_a life_n there_o then_o be_v this_o holy_a anchor_n to_o be_v cast_v this_o must_v be_v our_o refuge_n that_o we_o come_v humble_o after_o the_o precept_n of_o john_n and_o think_v vile_a of_o oure self_o or_o as_o paul_n say_v shameful_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n this_o may_v perchance_o seem_v excellent_a but_o before_o god_n it_o be_v but_o a_o clout_n to_o wipe_v the_o shoe_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god._n who_o righteousness_n i_o will_v glad_o have_v to_o be_v give_v to_o i_o by_o the_o help_n whereof_o i_o may_v be_v certain_a of_o salvation_n whereas_o for_o my_o own_o righteousness_n i_o ought_v not_o to_o refuse_v damnation_n in_o hell_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o we_o say_v sure_o that_o mounkes_n priest_n cool_v and_o all_o thing_n of_o this_o sort_n be_v destinate_a to_o damnation_n for_o they_o apply_v not_o their_o work_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o

be_v to_o deny_v christ_n word_n and_o to_o mock_v and_o despise_v he_o as_o the_o jew_n mock_v and_o despise_v he_o let_v we_o beware_v of_o such_o abomination_n and_o here_o let_v we_o learn_v how_o to_o answer_v such_o juggler_n will_v thou_o wretched_a man_n be_v so_o mighty_a with_o thy_o work_n and_o righteousness_n that_o thou_o may_v purchase_v i_o salvation_n thereby_o the_o virtue_n of_o

how_o child_n honour_v their_o parent_n how_o servant_n obey_v their_o master_n how_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n be_v handle_v then_o shall_v you_o understand_v who_o love_v god_n and_o

thou_o will_v be_v more_o faithful_a unto_o thy_o king_n and_o will_v do_v thy_o office_n with_o more_o diligence_n so_o be_v there_o no_o servant_n in_o any_o house_n so_o far_o past_a shame_n that_o

which_o we_o may_v know_v certain_o &_o true_o what_o be_v faith_n our_o adversary_n the_o papist_n teach_v none_o otherwise_o as_o touch_v faith_n then_o that_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a knowledge_n

of_o his_o miracle_n &_o act_n but_o as_o concern_v christian_a faith_n the_o scripture_n speak_v on_o this_o wise_a that_o by_o it_o we_o obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n righteousness_n faith_n &_o

by_o the_o which_o we_o obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n everlasting_a but_o in_o this_o place_n it_o be_v describe_v by_o a_o example_n what_o be_v true_a faith_n even_o to_o think_v

where_o the_o promise_n be_v &_o we_o embrace_v it_o with_o faith_n that_o be_v a_o true_a &_o christian_a faith_n as_o we_o see_v in_o this_o ruler_n he_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o desire_v he_o to_o go_v down_o with_o he_o and_o to_o help_v his_o son_n the_o ruler_n take_v it_o very_o hevy_o and_o be_v great_o afraid_a for_o he_o dread_v great_o least_o that_o if_o he_o borough_n not_o

although_o this_o be_v a_o certain_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o such_o as_o for_o the_o set_n forth_o whereof_o he_o come_v into_o this_o world_n for_o he_o will_v not_o be_v

divine_a and_o godlyke_a power_n they_o must_v his_o word_n be_v think_v almighty_a and_o to_o this_o point_n do_v he_o adhort_v this_o ruler_n that_o he_o may_v rather_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o

there_o be_v no_o sign_n of_o present_a aid_n and_o succour_n and_o this_o must_v be_v the_o faith_n of_o all_o saint_n that_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v and_o not_o our_o will_n and_o that_o if_o

not_o from_o he_o find_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o deliverance_n from_o death_n and_o hell_n for_o so_o be_v it_o whole_o decree_v with_o god_n 14._o that_o in_o this_o man_n all_o thing_n shall_v be_v he_o be_v the_o way_n truth_n and_o life_n and_o by_o he_o only_o the_o patriarch_n prophet_n and_o apostle_n be_v save_v from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n this_o know_v john_n and_o send_v his_o disciple_n for_o this_o cause_n unto_o he_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o lack_v so_o great_a a_o treasure_n and_o goodness_n this_o do_v god_n well_o perceive_v christ._n that_o this_o be_v our_o fault_n to_o be_v desirous_a to_o serche_n out_o many_o way_n and_o one_o for_o the_o love_n of_o monkery_n become_v a_o monk_n a_o other_o fa_v a_o other_o slepe_v on_o the_o ground_n and_o so_o every_o man_n follow_v his_o own_o devise_n and_o go_v forth_o in_o his_o own_o way_n that_o may_v bring_v he_o to_o heaven_n wherefore_o god_n talk_v with_o we_o by_o the_o gospel_n and_o protest_v that_o he_o allow_v not_o that_o as_o seem_v good_a to_o we_o but_o that_o he_o put_v forth_o his_o word_n to_o show_v we_o the_o true_a way_n that_o be_v his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n salvation_n wherefore_o he_o that_o stray_v from_o he_o shall_v depart_v void_a of_o salvation_n although_o he_o fast_o &_o pray_v never_o somuche_o contrarywyse_o he_o that_o cleave_v unto_o he_o by_o faith_n have_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o life_n everlasting_a neither_o can_v the_o devil_n or_o sin_n deceive_v he_o of_o his_o trust_n this_o way_n do_v the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n walk_v &_o obtain_v salvation_n through_o christ_n ▪_o for_o if_o any_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o work_n and_o by_o their_o own_o rightuousnes_n sure_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n which_o out_o of_o measure_n wrought_v and_o suffer_v many_o thing_n but_o here_o they_o do_v all_o despair_n of_o their_o own_o rightuousnes_n and_o take_v hold_v by_o that_o seed_n with_o a_o firm_a faith_n that_o shall_v break_v the_o serpent_n head_n but_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o walk_v in_o this_o way_n they_o can_v not_o believe_v 3._o that_o there_o be_v such_o help_n in_o a_o carpenter_n think_n this_o with_o themselves_o we_o must_v so_o work_v by_o fast_o alm_n &_o prayer_n that_o we_o may_v be_v with_o god_n it_o be_v a_o folly_n to_o think_v that_o this_o craftesman_n can_v save_v and_o for_o this_o cause_n god_n take_v this_o order_n john_n that_o john_n shall_v come_v as_o a_o trompetter_n before_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v the_o meaning_a of_o the_o trumpet_n that_o all_o at_o the_o sound_n thereof_o shall_v have_v their_o eye_n attent_a and_o mark_v that_o man_n well_o that_o come_v after_o john_n as_o the_o true_a expectation_n of_o israel_n wherefore_o when_o the_o jew_n send_v legate_n and_o demand_v whether_o he_o be_v christ_n elias_n or_o any_o prophet_n he_o answer_v i_o be_o not_o when_o they_o be_v instant_a sayenge_a who_o be_v thou_o then_o and_o what_o record_n geve_v thou_o of_o thyself_o he_o aunswerethe_v i_o be_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o crier_n in_o wyldernes_n make_v ready_o the_o way_n for_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v i_o be_o a_o trompetter_n before_o the_o king_n wherefore_o be_v attente_n to_o my_o word_n for_o he_o shall_v come_v after_o i_o incontinent_o which_o be_v before_o i_o and_o
