mr._n b._n it_o be_v confess_v what_o you_o say_v be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n among_o learned_a man_n in_o their_o computation_n of_o daniel_n week_n they_o be_v not_o agree_v as_o i_o say_v before_o at_o which_o of_o the_o commandment_n for_o the_o build_n of_o jerusalem_n they_o do_v begin_v nor_o at_o the_o which_o of_o these_o two_o season_n they_o end_v whether_o at_o the_o death_n of_o the_o messiah_n or_o at_o the_o utter_a subversion_n and_o destruction_n of_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o there_o be_v some_o difference_n also_o in_o their_o account_n which_o be_v occasion_v by_o the_o defect_n of_o history_n the_o number_n and_o year_n of_o the_o persian_a king_n through_o who_o reign_v that_o account_n run_v be_v different_o record_v by_o most_o

and_o this_o i_o may_v further_o tell_v you_o that_o the_o difference_n among_o the_o jew_n about_o the_o beginning_n and_o end_v of_o the_o seventy_o year_n captivity_n be_v more_o and_o great_a than_o the_o difference_n among_o christian_n about_o the_o seventy_o week_n in_o this_o prophecy_n yea_o the_o ancient_a jew_n be_v so_o convince_v the_o messiah_n be_v to_o come_v about_o the_o

all_o his_o wealth_n and_o glory_n be_v not_o worth_a one_o ten_o part_n of_o this_o treasure_n nay_o all_o herod_n revenue_n be_v hardly_o sufficient_a to_o find_v bread_n for_o solomon_n workman_n
