in_o affection_n like_o too_o other_o wild_a beast_n the_o second_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o like_a as_o sheep_n do_v know_v the_o voice_n of_o their_o own_o shepeherde_n and_o flee_v from_o a_o stranger_n so_o the_o godly_a acknowledge_v chryste_n only_o for_o their_o teacher_n and_o will_v here_o those_o only_a that_o utter_a his_o word_n and_o not_o any_o other_o how_o great_o renown_a so_o ever_o they_o be_v no_o though_o they_o be_v angel_n from_o heaven_n the_o third_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o like_a as_o sheep_n follow_v their_o own_o shepherd_n whither_o so_o ever_o he_o go_v so_o must_v the_o godly_a follow_v christ_n in_o life_n in_o persecution_n and_o in_o glory_n behold_v his_o life_n as_o a_o rule_n too_o lead_v their_o life_n by_o bear_v his_o cross_n through_o

if_o we_o suffer_v with_o he_o we_o shall_v also_o be_v glorify_v with_o he_o hereby_o therefore_o may_v the_o godly_a minister_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o word_n learn_v too_o feed_v christ_n flock_n and_o let_v the_o sheep_n be_v meek_a let_v they_o here_o the_o voice_n of_o their_o shepherd_n only_o and_o let_v they_o follow_v he_o in_o life_n in_o cross_n and_o in_o glory_n the_o third_o thing_n
