of_o the_o lot_n to_o enlarge_v or_o restrain_v the_o bound_n of_o every_o tribe_n by_o just_a proportion_n and_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o matter_n can_v not_o be_v accomplish_v only_o by_o cast_v of_o lot_n for_o when_o nothing_o be_v more_o chanceable_a in_o man_n judgement_n than_o the_o fall_n of_o lot_n they_o know_v not_o whether_o god_n will_v place_v the_o half_a tribe_n of_o

follow_v the_o fruitfulness_n of_o the_o field_n or_o the_o good_a temper_n of_o the_o air_n or_o the_o pleasantness_n of_o the_o place_n but_o the_o lot_n place_v the_o tribe_n of_o juda_n as_o it_o
