for_o truth_n whereof_o i_o will_v refer_v myself_o to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n for_o in_o the_o five_o chapter_n of_o deuteronomie_n moses_n call_v himself_o a_o mediator_n say_v thus_o sequestre_n

thereof_o be_v it_o not_o certain_a that_o we_o have_v but_o one_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v the_o same_o jesus_n christ_n very_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o sure_a and_o nevertheless_o the_o scripture_n which_o can_v lie_v give_v the_o same_o title_n of_o honour_n to_o other_o though_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n without_o do_v wrong_a or_o dishonour_n to_o jesus_n christ_n as_o namely_o to_o othoniel_n in_o the_o three_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o judge_n and_o nehemiah_n also_o in_o the_o 9_o chapter_n of_o his_o book_n confirm_v the_o
