few_o word_n exhort_v my_o dear_o belove_a brethren_n in_o christ_n to_o be_v mindful_a of_o those_o thing_n according_a to_o my_o simple_a understanding_n and_o yet_o i_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o i_o shall_v spend_v any_o long_a time_n herein_o for_o i_o do_v firm_o trust_v that_o all_o those_o say_n be_v already_o note_v by_o you_o yea_o &_o deep_o imprint_v in_o your_o mind_n which_o the_o

you_o be_v not_o ignorant_a of_o the_o great_a rigour_n that_o god_n execute_v upon_o his_o people_n wherewith_o if_o he_o will_v have_v punish_v you_o what_o may_v have_v let_v he_o i_o pray_v you_o yea_o rather_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o do_v not_o punish_v you_o do_v you_o think_v that_o any_o of_o you_o be_v endue_v with_o any_o such_o excellency_n as_o you_o may_v thereby_o challenge_v any_o preeminence_n above_o the_o jewish_a nation_n be_v not_o we_o sometime_o even_o in_o the_o same_o plight_n that_o many_o jew_n remain_v in_o at_o this_o day_n to_o wit_n unfaithful_a unbeliever_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n then_o if_o god_n exclude_v the_o jew_n for_o their_o unbelief_n as_o he_o do_v what_o argument_n may_v induce_v he_o to_o have_v more_o compassion_n upon_o the_o gentile_n who_o be_v sometime_o as_o void_a of_o faith_n as_o they_o be_v now_o whereby_o you_o may_v perceive_v my_o dear_a brethren_n how_o the_o inestimable_a mercy_n of_o god_n do_v miraculous_o work_v in_o man_n election_n beyond_o all_o hope_n and_o capacity_n of_o man_n who_o have_v compassion_n on_o who_o it_o please_v he_o and_o harden_v the_o heart_n of_o who_o he_o ly_v that_o it_o may_v right_o be_v say_v that_o it_o consist_v neither_o in_o the_o power_n of_o the_o willing_a nor_o of_o the_o run_v to_o obtain_v mercy_n but_o in_o the_o merciful_a god._n if_o this_o be_v not_o yet_o apparent_a unto_o you_o look_v upon_o those_o israelite_n that_o be_v yet_o forsake_v of_o god_n who_o be_v sometime_o in_o his_o favour_n and_o you_o admit_v in_o their_o stead_n what_o be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o i_o pray_v you_o thou_o wile_n say_v that_o the_o natural_a branch_n be_v break_v off_o that_o i_o may_v be_v engraft_v in_o it_o be_v true_a in_o deed_n they_o
