A93265	A lamentation for the lost sheep of the house of Israel. With an invitation to have them turne in their minds to the true shepheard of the souls.

himself_o and_o to_o rip_v off_o all_o your_o deceitful_a cover_n and_o lay_v you_o open_a to_o the_o shame_n of_o the_o heathen_a and_o this_o be_v the_o word_n that_o we_o witness_v to_o lead_v
