come_v to_o pythagoras_n in_o italy_n where_o the_o cunning_a philosopher_n rook_v he_o of_o his_o money_n by_o persuade_v the_o poor_a man_n that_o he_o be_v his_o god_n and_o to_o convince_v he_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o they_o say_v that_o pythagoras_n show_v he_o his_o golden_a thigh_n and_o then_o which_o be_v worst_a of_o all_o make_v he_o swear_v the_o people_n into_o a_o belief_n that_o he_o be_v apollo_n himself_o if_o any_o other_o author_n mention_n any_o of_o these_o wonderful_a thing_n he_o declare_v that_o he_o have_v it_o only_o from_o report_n or_o by_o hearsay_n and_o so_o leave_v the_o reader_n to_o judge_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o but_o most_o of_o these_o thing_n be_v positive_o affirm_v by_o porphyry_n and_o his_o scholar_n jamblichus_n only_o they_o

take_v the_o pain_n to_o collect_v they_o and_o pawn_v their_o faith_n to_o give_v they_o credit_n in_o the_o world_n such_o great_a man_n as_o they_o be_v have_v no_o doubt_n great_a reason_n for_o this_o but_o what_o that_o shall_v be_v deserve_v a_o far_a consideration_n wherein_o if_o i_o do_v a_o little_a exceed_v i_o know_v you_o will_v not_o only_o pardon_v i_o but_o will_v take_v the_o

and_o yet_o pretend_v to_o divine_a revelation_n will_v show_v that_o they_o by_o all_o their_o wisdom_n know_v not_o god_n their_o indignation_n at_o this_o be_v much_o the_o more_o 21._o because_o
