what_o weight_n there_o be_v in_o they_o i_o leave_v to_o other_o to_o judge_v 1._o because_o christ_n do_v assert_v they_o to_o to_o be_v such_o luke_n 21._o 5._o to_o 12._o as_o some_o speak_v of_o

to_o forerun_v other_o follow_a misery_n but_o my_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o it_o do_v extend_v itself_o so_o far_o to_o so_o many_o place_n in_o england_n and_o beyond_o the_o sea_n according_a to_o the_o account_n that_o i_o have_v hear_v not_o only_o on_o the_o same_o day_n but_o at_o the_o same_o time_n of_o the_o day_n as_o in_o england_n at_o london_n sheerness_n sandwich_n deal_n

which_o strive_v all_o along_o so_o far_o to_o get_v out_o it_o seem_v very_o strange_a they_o do_v no_o where_o with_o great_a fury_n break_v out_o to_o the_o open_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o overthrow_v of_o some_o place_n where_o the_o earth_n be_v weak_a if_o the_o quantity_n be_v less_o take_v its_o beginning_n in_o some_o certain_a place_n and_o proceed_v forward_o seek_v to_o get_v out_o but_o can_v not_o it_o will_v have_v require_v more_o time_n to_o travail_v under_o ground_n to_o such_o distant_a town_n and_o city_n as_o in_o england_n and_o so_o many_o place_n beyond_o sea_n and_o so_o can_v not_o have_v be_v at_o all_o at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o if_o it_o be_v from_o the_o immediate_a hand_n of_o god_n be_v it_o not_o for_o some_o great_a end_n that_o god_n shall_v do_v so_o great_a a_o work_n which_o he_o do_v more_o rare_o do_v be_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o a_o warning_n to_o all_o that_o have_v be_v shake_v by_o it_o to_o forsake_v sin_n and_o
