multitude_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o persecuter_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o crucify_a he_o in_o taunt_a and_o scorn_v he_o doubtless_o there_o be_v in_o that_o company_n some_o of_o the_o godly_a

look_v when_o paul_n be_v accuse_v the_o roman_a governor_n lysias_n felix_n and_o festus_n have_v a_o conscience_n of_o the_o innocence_n of_o paul_n but_o the_o high_a priest_n persecute_v he_o to_o

according_a to_o this_o law_n they_o affirm_v he_o worthy_a of_o death_n so_o brethren_n what_o ever_o pilate_n can_v do_v or_o say_v to_o mitigate_v and_o to_o assuage_v their_o malice_n speak_v

have_v the_o bitterness_n of_o the_o gall_n there_o be_v sundry_a opinion_n about_o this_o drink_n which_o they_o give_v he_o some_o think_v that_o this_o be_v a_o delicious_a drink_n and_o that_o

shall_v have_v most_o hasty_o procure_v his_o death_n but_o i_o leave_v these_o opinion_n and_o i_o think_v that_o this_o be_v no_o delicious_a drink_n and_o i_o think_v again_o that_o this_o drink_n be_v not_o give_v to_o hasten_v his_o death_n &_o i_o think_v that_o this_o sour_a &_o bitter_a drink_n be_v offer_v in_o derision_n and_o scorn_n by_o the_o jew_n and_o soldier_n who_o have_v no_o

and_o put_v it_o to_o his_o mouth_n and_o this_o his_o drink_n be_v to_o be_v count_v a_o part_n of_o his_o passion_n of_o this_o we_o have_v this_o lesson_n always_o keep_v this_o ground_n that_o
