as_o our_o lord_n do_v with_o head_n meek_o incline_v while_o the_o jew_n utter_v blasphemy_n and_o contumely_n against_o he_o have_v this_o precedent_n still_o before_o my_o eye_n i_o will_v resolve_v in_o this_o book_n to_o study_v meekness_n and_o patience_n not_o render_v evil_a for_o evil_n but_o by_o good_a to_o overcome_v evil_a and_o the_o better_a to_o conceive_v the_o excellency_n of_o meekness_n i_o will_v make_v a_o lively_a representation_n to_o myself_o of_o the_o vice_n which_o be_v contrary_a thereto_o by_o a_o swell_a and_o tempestuous_a sea_n who_o billow_n

this_o short_a ejaculation_n to_o the_o great_a exemplar_n of_o meekness_n o_o patient_a redeemer_n and_o meek_a lamb_n who_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n if_o by_o behold_v the_o
