¶_o the_o apologye_n of_o sir_n thomas_n more_o knight_n sir_n thomas_n more_o knight_n to_o the_o crysten_v reder_n the_o first_o chapyter_n so_o well_o stand_v i_o not_o i_o thank_v god_n good_a reader_n in_o my_o own_o conceit_n &_o thereby_o so_o much_o in_o my_o own_o light_n but_o that_o i_o can_v somewhat_o with_o equal_a judgement_n and_o a_o evyn_n yeah_o byholde_v and_o consider_v both_o myself_o and_o my_o own_o nor_o i_o use_v not_o to_o follow_v the_o condytion_n of_o isopes_n ape_n y_fw-fr â—_o think_v she_o own_o babe_n so_o bâ—utuouse_a &_o so_o far_o pass_a in_o all_o goodly_a feature_n and_o favour_n nor_o the_o crow_n that_o account_v she_o own_o bird_n the_o fair_a of_o all_o the_o fowl_n that_o fly_v but_o like_a as_o some_o i_o see_v well_o there_o be_v that_o can_v somewhat_o less_o they_o i_o that_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o put_v out_o their_o work_n in_o writing_a so_o be_o i_o not_o so_o blind_a upon_o the_o other_o side_n but_o that_o i_o very_o well_o perceyve_v very_o many_o so_o far_o in_o wit_n and_o erudicyon_n above_o i_o that_o in_o such_o matter_n as_o i_o have_v any_o thing_n write_v if_o other_o man_n as_o many_o will_v have_v take_v it_o in_o hand_n as_o can_v have_v do_v it_o better_o it_o may_v much_o better_o have_v become_v i_o to_o let_v the_o matter_n alone_o then_o by_o write_v to_o pnsume_v any_o thing_n to_o meddle_v therewith_o and_o therefore_o good_a reader_n since_o i_o so_o well_o know_v so_o many_o man_n so_o far_o excel_v &_o pass_v i_o in_o all_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v require_v in_o he_o that_o may_v adventure_v to_o put_v his_o work_n abroad_o to_o stand_v and_o abide_v the_o judgement_n of_o all_o other_o man_n i_o be_v never_o so_o far_o overâ—â—ne_v as_o either_o to_o look_v or_o hope_v that_o â—â—ch_a fault_n as_o in_o my_o writing_n shall_v by_o my_o oversyght_n escape_v i_o can_v 〈◊〉_d the_o 〈◊〉_d of_o all_o other_o man_n 〈◊〉_d forth_o unspy_v but_o 〈…〉_o both_o by_o 〈…〉_o perceyâ—â—d_v

sort_n and_o kind_n as_o you_o â—_o reâ—ders_n shall_v in_o their_o soul_n perish_v and_o be_v destroy_v by_o of_z which_o poysen_v fault_n my_o adversary_n book_n be_v full_a now_o then_o as_o for_o other_o fault_n of_o less_o write_v and_o tolerable_a i_o nothing_o doubt_v nor_o do_v but_o that_o every_o good_a chrysten_v reader_n will_v be_v so_o reasonable_a and_o indyfferent_a as_o to_o pardon_v in_o i_o the_o thing_n that_o hap_v in_o all_o other_o man_n and_o that_o no_o such_o man_n will_v over_o i_o be_v so_o sore_a a_o audytour_n &_o over_o my_o book_n such_o a_o sore_a
