neither_o do_v i_o think_v that_o he_o have_v see_v any_o purposely_o argue_v for_o tithe_n that_o do_v fetch_v his_o chief_a reason_n thence_o but_o as_o the_o learned_a have_v teach_v who_o have_v handle_v this_o subject_n we_o claim_v they_o thus_o as_o due_a to_o god_n by_o reservation_n from_o the_o beginning_n as_o follow_v christ_n priesthood_n as_o the_o only_a certainty_n mention_v in_o

as_o for_o the_o mosaical_a law_n and_o mandate_n of_o god_n concern_v levi_n we_o make_v it_o not_o the_o ground_n of_o our_o title_n to_o tithe_n and_o where_o he_o will_v have_v we_o examine_v which_o of_o the_o two_o kind_n be_v due_a in_o the_o evangelicall_n priesthood_n why_o not_o the_o second_o as_o well_o as_o the_o first_o this_o have_v be_v full_o answer_v by_o they_o that_o have_v write_v of_o this_o argument_n and_o have_v make_v a_o more_o perfect_a division_n of_o tithe_n than_o this_o of_o first_o and_o second_o but_o because_o as_o it_o seem_v the_o jew_n be_v in_o more_o
