the_o messenger_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o he_o send_v with_o it_o to_o you_o for_o your_o good_a and_o many_o hundred_o suffer_v in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o nation_n upon_o this_o account_n till_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o your_o hear_n or_o obey_v the_o voice_n of_o your_o return_n then_o do_v the_o lord_n raise_v up_o sign_n and_o wonder_n among_o you_o if_o by_o any_o mean_n he_o may_v

over_o you_o and_o some_o with_o ash_n upon_o their_o head_n he_o send_v into_o your_o assembly_n of_o worship_n and_o your_o assembly_n in_o your_o feast_n and_o of_o your_o fast_n which_o be_v all_o
