to_o make_v law_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o god_n in_o the_o xvij_o chapter_n of_o deuteronomie_n ordain_v under_o a_o great_a penalty_n that_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o priest_n shall_v

and_o maintain_v wisdom_n and_o the_o law_n they_o shall_v require_v at_o his_o mouth_n which_o be_v the_o messenger_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n therefore_o it_o be_v fit_v and_o necessary_a that_o if_o a_o priest_n will_v be_v hear_v that_o he_o do_v show_v himself_o the_o messenger_n of_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v faithful_o to_o report_v and_o declare_v the_o commandment_n which_o
