boast_v of_o the_o same_o against_o many_o schism_n and_o heresy_n and_o do_v try_v umph_o with_o wonderful_a success_n even_o against_o the_o truth_n and_o the_o witness_n of_o it_o according_a to_o

the_o idolatrous_a israelite_n and_o edomite_n against_o the_o moabite_n idolater_n god_n sometime_o give_v great_a success_n of_o victory_n even_o to_o idolater_n 2_o king_n 3._o and_o miraculous_o to_o deliver_v idolatrous_a apostate_n israel_n from_o the_o mighty_a army_n of_o the_o syrian_n 2_o king_n 7._o thus_o he_o also_o reward_v hypocritical_a jehn_n for_o his_o temporal_a service_n in_o

of_o israel_n we_o pray_v you_o also_o to_o call_v to_o mind_n how_o it_o please_v god_n out_o of_o the_o bottomless_a ocean_n of_o his_o goodness_n to_o cause_v his_o sun_n to_o shine_v and_o his_o

among_o the_o scotch_a french_a dutch_a who_o pretend_v a_o reformation_n pure_a it_o seem_v therefore_o evident_a that_o neither_o oppose_v of_o heresy_n nor_o success_n in_o victory_n deliverance_n
