of_o the_o second_o assoon_o as_o he_o see_v they_o he_o say_v go_v and_o show_v yourselves_o too_o the_o priest_n who_o he_o have_v heal_v in_o their_o go_v away_o by_o his_o only_a beck_n they_o

priest_n there_o be_v many_o and_o great_a cause_n the_o first_o be_v that_o he_o may_v try_v their_o faith_n whither_o they_o beléeve_v his_o word_n and_o his_o promise_n for_o god_n be_v wont_v by_o

do_n he_o may_v confirm_v the_o public_a ministry_n ordain_v by_o god._n for_o the_o priest_n have_v a_o commandment_n too_o discern_v and_o judge_v of_o leprosy_n &_o too_o receive_v intoo_o the_o

he_o come_v not_o too_o break_v but_o too_o fulfil_v &_o perform_v the_o three_o be_v because_o the_o law_n &_o the_o préesthood_n bear_v witness_n of_o chryst_n according_a as_o he_o say_v himself_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n bear_v witness_n of_o i_o for_o whereas_o the_o priest_n be_v command_v too_o judge_v of_o leprosy_n and_o to_o take_v a_o offering_n for_o the_o cleanse_n of_o the_o

own_o body_n and_o with_o his_o own_o precious_a blood_n the_o four_o be_v that_o the_o priest_n may_v lern_v by_o that_o miracle_n that_o the_o true_a messiah_n be_v come_v for_o so_o esay_n tell_v

therefore_o do_v wrest_v this_o text_n too_o a_o strange_a sense_n &_o with_o their_o allegory_n do_v make_v grin_n wherewithal_o the_o wretched_a conscience_n be_v horrible_o snarl_v and_o so_o of_o
