scholar_n and_o with_o he_o a_o excise_n man_n his_o name_n be_v ebb_v and_o the_o priest_n name_n be_v goslin_n and_o there_o be_v with_o they_o two_o soldier_n 4._o these_o man_n be_v at_o dinner_n with_o we_o captain_n stasy_n put_v the_o priest_n upon_o discourse_n and_o dispute_v with_o we_o 5._o so_o we_o dispute_v with_o he_o concern_v god_n and_o when_o we_o come_v to_o prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o god_n be_v a_o form_n like_o man_n according_a to_o those_o word_n in_o geneses_n god_n make_v man_n in_o his_o own_o image_n and_o likeness_n the_o priest_n plead_v that_o be_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n 6._o we_o show_v he_o that_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n have_v no_o form_n nor_o image_n without_o a_o body_n nay_o it_o be_v nothing_o at_o all_o in_o itself_o but_o as_o it_o be_v act_v forth_o by_o a_o body_n 7._o for_o it_o be_v a_o body_n that_o act_v holy_a good_a and_o righteous_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v we_o call_v such_o a_o man_n a_o holy_a man_n a_o good_a man_n a_o righteous_a man_n now_o if_o god_n make_v man_n in_o his_o own_o image_n a_o holy_a upright_a man_n can_v he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v man_n except_o he_o have_v a_o body_n 8._o neither_o can_v they_o word_n be_v proper_a to_o say_v god_n make_v man_n in_o his_o own_o image_n and_o likeness_n if_o man_n be_v make_v with_o a_o body_n to_o act_v holy_a and_o righteous_a thing_n and_o god_n that_o make_v he_o have_v never_o a_o body_n himself_o 9_o how_o then_o can_v man_n be_v say_v to_o be_v make_v in_o the_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o god_n whenas_o there_o be_v no_o likeness_n at_o all_o between_o they_o for_o the_o one_o have_v a_o person_n form_n and_o body_n and_o the_o other_o have_v none_o 10._o and_o if_o you_o say_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n be_v the_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o god_n we_o pray_v will_v you_o show_v we_o the_o form_n and_o likeness_n of_o the_o image_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n distinct_a of_o itself_o from_o a_o body_n 11._o then_o where_o ever_o we_o see_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n distinct_a of_o itself_o than_o we_o shall_v know_v god_n and_o that_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n be_v the_o image_n and_o likeness_n of_o god_n without_o a_o body_n 12._o and_o when_o we_o see_v this_o we_o will_v worship_v holiness_n and_o righteousness_n for_o god_n without_o a_o body_n if_o you_o can_v show_v we_o the_o form_n of_o it_o by_o itself_o 13._o then_o the_o priest_n grow_v angry_a and_o call_v it_o blasphemy_n to_o say_v god_n be_v a_o form_n or_o person_n and_o say_v we_o be_v deceaver_n with_o many_o other_o rail_v speech_n 14._o whereupon_o john_n reeve_n pronounce_v he_o curse_a and_o damn_v both_o soul_n and_o body_n from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n elect_a man_n and_o angel_n to_o eternity_n 15._o and_o further_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v never_o see_v any_o other_o god_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v but_o the_o sentence_n he_o have_v pass_v upon_o he_o 16._o then_o the_o two_o soldier_n be_v very_o angry_a to_o see_v the_o priest_n damn_v and_o they_o will_v have_v fall_v upon_o we_o to_o beat_v we_o and_o one_o of_o they_o take_v up_o a_o great_a stool_n to_o knock_v john_n reeve_n on_o the_o head_n 17._o but_o captain_n stasy_n hold_v he_o and_o persuade_v he_o then_o they_o say_v they_o will_v have_v a_o warrant_n for_o we_o either_o from_o general_n cromwell_n or_o the_o council_n of_o state_n or_o from_o the_o parliament_n 18._o john_n reeve_n answer_v and_o if_o general_n cromwell_n the_o council_n of_o state_n or_o parliament_n shall_v despise_v those_o thing_n we_o declare_v as_o you_o have_v do_v and_o as_o this_o priest_n have_v do_v i_o will_v pronounce_v they_o damn_v as_o i_o do_v you_o 19_o so_o with_o a_o great_a many_o word_n more_o at_o that_o time_n between_o they_o and_o we_o and_o threaten_n wherewith_o they_o threaten_v we_o we_o part_v 20._o and_o captain_n stasy_n seem_v to_o be_v sorry_a that_o they_o be_v no_o more_o civil_a but_o he_o be_v glad_a the_o priest_n be_v damn_v because_o he_o be_v a_o great_a enemy_n to_o the_o clergy_n the_o end_n of_o the_o second_o part._n the_o three_o part._n
