of_o god_n unto_o the_o people_n when_o the_o priest_n and_o such_o as_o shall_v do_v so_o be_v slack_a in_o their_o calling_n of_o which_o sort_n be_v esay_n jeremie_n ezechiell_n damell_n hose_n

of_o they_o tell_v as_o much_o of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o may_v be_v nor_o the_o expound_v of_o his_o law_n but_o the_o patriarch_n have_v leave_v some_o to_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o

live_v and_o therefore_o most_o convenient_a for_o us._n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o jonah_n live_v in_o a_o very_a troublesome_a time_n namely_o in_o the_o time_n of_o jeroboam_fw-la a_o wicked_a

unspotted_a among_o they_o all_o and_o furthermore_o it_o lay_v open_a and_o magnify_v the_o great_a love_n of_o god_n in_o that_o he_o send_v a_o prophet_n to_o admonish_v his_o ungodly_a people_n when_o as_o he_o shall_v have_v send_v a_o thunderbolt_n to_o terrify_v they_o or_o rather_o utter_o to_o destroy_v
by_o your_o experience_n now_o a_o day_n man_n take_v upon_o they_o to_o reprove_v other_o for_o commit_v such_o thing_n as_o themselves_o have_v practise_v and_o do_v practice_v without_o amendment_n
