to_o be_v a_o redeemer_n as_o well_o as_o a_o reconciler_n of_o they_o both_o together_o so_o that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v in_o this_o sense_n as_o well_o as_o another_o what_o the_o prophet_n

it_o can_v be_v the_o less_o suspect_v that_o he_o have_v any_o design_n but_o what_o be_v for_o the_o good_a and_o happiness_n of_o they_o both_o so_o zealous_a and_o so_o tender_a have_v the_o church_n always_o be_v in_o assert_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o virgin_n mother_n that_o she_o have_v always_o maintain_v her_o perpetual_a virginity_n as_o well_o after_o the_o birth_n of_o christ_n

the_o messiah_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n but_o the_o ready_a way_n will_v have_v be_v to_o have_v affirm_v according_a to_o the_o vulgar_a error_n of_o the_o jew_n

i_o mean_v who_o since_o our_o saviour_n time_n have_v endeavour_v to_o elude_v the_o prophecy_n concern_v he_o that_o he_o be_v indeed_o bear_v as_o we_o affirm_v and_o believe_v after_o a_o miraculous_a manner_n of_o a_o virgin_n this_o show_v plain_o according_a to_o their_o own_o extort_a confession_n that_o he_o be_v certain_o a_o most_o extraordinary_a person_n who_o be_v bring_v

the_o very_a person_n who_o the_o prophet_n foretell_v the_o messiah_n that_o be_v expect_v in_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n and_o so_o the_o jewish_a evasion_n be_v baffle_v by_o themselves_o and_o from_o what_o they_o have_v grant_v to_o be_v true_a they_o be_v in_o effect_n force_v to_o confess_v that_o which_o in_o word_n and_o in_o appearance_n they_o deny_v three_o and_o last_o when_o
