therefore_o the_o scripture_n call_v thou_o to_o account_v and_o that_o the_o more_o thou_o may_v remember_v not_o many_o year_n ago_o thou_o be_v but_o a_o poor_a journy-man_n of_o thy_o trade_n

which_o i_o shall_v open_v at_o large_a in_o the_o last_o chapter_n thus_o much_o in_o answer_n to_o your_o plea_n now_o i_o shall_v prove_v from_o scripture_n the_o seed_n of_o cain_n to_o be_v of_o the_o devil_n the_o devil_n or_o seed_n of_o cain_n infallible_o prove_v from_o experience_n in_o scripture_n ii_o because_o of_o the_o great_a opposition_n that_o may_v arise_v up_o against_o this_o

in_o hand_n in_o the_o first_o epistle_n of_o john_n the_o three_o chapter_n you_o shall_v find_v it_o thus_o write_v not_o as_o cain_n which_o be_v of_o that_o wicked_a one_o and_o slay_v his_o

chapter_n of_o s._n john_n christ_n jesus_n the_o god_n of_o truth_n speak_v thus_o you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o the_o lust_n of_o your_o father_n you_o will_v do_v he_o have_v be_v a_o murderer_n from_o the_o beginning_n and_o abide_v not_o in_o the_o truth_n because_o there_o be_v no_o truth_n in_o he_o when_o he_o speak_v a_o lie_n than_o he_o speak_v of_o his_o own_o for_o he_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o the_o father_n thereof_o my_o spiritual_a and_o rational_a friend_n which_o be_v sober_a be_v not_o cain_n the_o first_o murder_n lie_a man_n that_o ever_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o woman_n see_v no_o true_a christian_n can_v gainsay_v it_o be_v not_o that_o curse_a cain_n from_o the_o beginning_n that_o murder_a devil_n and_o father_n of_o lie_n speak_v of_o by_o christ_n aforesaid_a in_o answer_n to_o those_o carnal_a jew_n which_o boast_v themselves_o to_o be_v of_o abraham_n seed_n and_o be_v not_o those_o lustful_a murthering-minded_n jew_n or_o gentile_n which_o our_o lord_n brand_v with_o title_n of_o serpent_n viper_n child_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o such_o like_a filthy_a canaanites_n which_o proceed_v out_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o curse_a cain_n
