the_o cause_n why_o paul_n do_v loathe_v his_o life_n may_v easy_o be_v assign_v because_o the_o jew_n in_o every_o place_n do_v seek_v he_o to_o molest_v but_o those_o which_o in_o this_o world_n

himself_o from_o jew_n so_o full_a of_o hate_n when_o they_o think_v from_o the_o top_n of_o hill_n he_o to_o precipitate_v wherefore_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n at_o all_o a_o man_n for_o to_o defend_v and_o keep_v himself_o from_o death_n so_o long_o as_o nature_n give_v he_o leave_v conscience_n the_o same_o who_o you_o recite_v have_v conceive_v a_o further_a end_n then_o to_o themselves_o to_o

among_o the_o psalm_n it_o better_a be_v to_o trust_v in_o god_n then_o that_o our_o confidence_n we_o settle_v shall_v in_o man_n wherefore_o to_o this_o which_o i_o now_o say_v of_o force_n
