ver_fw-la 16._o take_v all_o the_o chief_a passage_n of_o knowledge_n so_o that_o whatsoever_o man_n or_o paper_n book_n or_o minister_n have_v not_o pronounce_v their_o shibboleth_n aright_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v crush_v or_o suppress_v in_o the_o birth_n 4._o yea_o high_o yet_o because_o some_o puritanical_a minister_n i_o speak_v in_o their_o dialect_n have_v a_o art_n of_o preach_v and_o

that_o be_v next_o door_n this_o be_v a_o mercy_n above_o many_o and_o therefore_o this_o three_o branch_n be_v both_o high_a and_o great_a than_o both_o the_o former_a and_o yet_o it_o be_v less_o
