that_o he_o have_v unto_o their_o company_n moreover_o also_o we_o know_v that_o garment_n be_v at_o the_o first_o give_v of_o god_n to_o adam_n &_o heva_n to_o cover_v their_o nakedness_n withal_o after_o they_o have_v commit_v sin_n but_o man_n have_v make_v himself_o goodly_a apparel_n of_o new_a and_o diverse_a fashion_n adam_n have_v a_o house_n for_o the_o needful_a use_n of_o it_o that_o

you_o that_o say_v that_o every_o man_n have_v need_v of_o a_o wife_n a_o house_n and_o apparel_v another_o day_n in_o paradise_n be_v what_o paradise_n be_v seem_v to_o argue_v that_o there_o be_v

and_o we_o do_v know_v it_o to_o be_v so_o but_o thus_o our_o prophet_n have_v write_v and_o therefore_o we_o must_v say_v nothing_o ah_o where_o truth_n may_v be_v speak_v and_o that_o to_o the_o

of_o great_a wisdom_n as_o it_o appear_v by_o his_o speech_n and_o book_n and_o that_o it_o be_v he_o which_o build_v the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n for_o he_o be_v so_o command_v by_o god_n in_o

to_o be_v true_a neither_o do_v i_o know_v for_o what_o reason_n our_o prophet_n have_v write_v it_o for_o this_o parable_n be_v no_o way_n profitable_a to_o us._n ah_o that_o book_n where_o the_o

the_o prophet_n and_o gospel_n do_v contain_v the_o high_a and_o profitable_a sense_n convenient_a for_o all_o now_o i_o do_v not_o know_v why_o we_o do_v not_o translate_v they_o see_v that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a danger_n to_o our_o soul_n ah_o i_o also_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o read_n of_o these_o book_n be_v profitable_a and_o convenient_a see_v that_o our_o prophet_n do_v much_o

of_o we_o shall_v believe_v that_o we_o shall_v enter_v into_o paradise_n only_o for_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o unity_n of_o god_n and_o that_o his_o prophet_n mohammed_n be_v of_o god_n for_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o unity_n be_v not_o deny_v of_o the_o jew_n no_o nor_o of_o the_o christian_n therefore_o this_o confession_n be_v without_o any_o particular_a reward_n to_o us._n the_o

be_v meet_v we_o ought_v to_o stir_v up_o our_o understanding_n unto_o thing_n of_o the_o deep_a conceit_n also_o we_o ought_v before_o all_o thing_n to_o know_v see_v that_o god_n which_o be_v just_a

be_v not_o like_o that_o miracle_n of_o the_o ant._n and_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o our_o prophet_n do_v not_o write_v that_o chapter_n wherein_o be_v record_v so_o lofty_a matter_n as_o those_o

therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o confess_v that_o those_o book_n appertain_v unto_o the_o salvation_n of_o all_o the_o world_n &_o of_o every_o several_a person_n in_o the_o same_o shall_z yea_o &_o i_o
