the_o gorgon_n head_n or_o the_o monster_n of_o munster_n choke_v with_o a_o lamb_n skinn_n oh_o monster_n oh_o monstrous_a monster_n the_o monster_n of_o monster_n the_o monster_n of_o munster_n woe_n to_o you_o anabaptist_n when_o the_o monster_n of_o munster_n appear_v he_o be_v a_o wolf_n in_o sheep_n clothing_n he_o leave_v not_o one_o anabaptist_n alive_a to_o tell_v their_o own_o

therefore_o they_o that_o escape_v live_v to_o record_v their_o cruelty_n in_o red_a letter_n but_o our_o monster_n of_o munster_n not_o leave_v one_o make_v their_o own_o relation_n authentic_a and_o let_v all_o man_n judge_v whether_o anabaptist_n do_v not_o deserve_v to_o be_v so_o serve_v for_o all_o those_o despise_a thing_n throughout_o poland_n hungary_n bohemia_n germany_n and_o the_o

tell_v we_o that_o these_o anabaptist_n of_o munster_n stand_v still_o and_o let_v out_o monster_n kill_v they_o and_o some_o of_o they_o climb_v up_o upon_o tree_n wait_v for_o miraculous_a help_n from_o heaven_n but_o our_o party_n prevent_v that_o miracle_n oh_o that_o they_o will_v do_v so_o here_o in_o england_n cry_v the_o rabble_n then_o shall_v not_o our_o pulpit_n and_o pamphlet_n

and_o when_o all_o be_v do_v we_o be_v so_o dismay_v that_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o go_v about_o it_o for_o fear_v leave_v when_o they_o be_v go_v we_o shall_v be_v no_o way_n able_a to_o cope_v
