make_v mention_n of_o zanchius_n his_o interpretation_n on_o that_o place_n let_v we_o also_o take_v notice_n of_o his_o application_n discant_fw-la hinc_fw-la concionatores_fw-la i._n non_fw-la

which_o be_v settle_v upon_o their_o lees_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v and_o yet_o in_o deal_v with_o they_o i_o grant_v that_o the_o minister_n ought_v to_o use_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o discretion_n for_o though_o the_o minister_n have_v the_o face_n of_o a_o eagle_n that_o be_v be_v able_a to_o soar_v up_o never_o so_o high_a in_o the_o contemplation_n of_o divine_a mystery_n

according_a to_o discretion_n they_o be_v nothing_o worth_a but_o here_o now_o fall_v in_o that_o main_a question_n what_o be_v discretion_n i_o fear_v there_o be_v some_o clergyman_n i_o will_v not_o say_v that_o make_v a_o idol_n of_o it_o but_o that_o do_v not_o well_o in_o oppose_a zeal_n and_o discretion_n as_o though_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v together_o and_o under_o pretence_n of_o
