though_o my_o answer_n be_v sound_a yet_o not_o very_o acceptable_a for_o it_o be_v in_o scripture_n term_n it_o be_v true_a i_o be_o utter_o against_o it_o that_o scripture_n shall_v bow_v to_o vain_a philosophy_n and_o to_o be_v wise_a above_o what_o be_v write_v and_o also_o it_o seem_v one_o thing_n not_o like_v my_o forsakeing_n those_o people_n with_o who_o i_o have_v walk_v it_o be_v true_a while_o they_o walk_v i_o walk_v with_o they_o but_o when_o they_o grow_v weary_a and_o sit_v down_o must_v i_o be_v blame_v for_o not_o do_v as_o they_o do_v because_o i_o walk_v still_o and_o that_o by_o the_o footstep_n of_o the_o flock_n according_a to_o there_o own_o adiuce_a and_o can_v set_v down_o or_o turn_v back_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v observe_v of_o the_o

why_o do_v their_o steward_n permit_v it_o if_o they_o find_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n there_o why_o be_v they_o draw_v off_o again_o be_v not_o this_o permit_v by_o thou_o and_o other_o if_o not_o

with_o who_o they_o have_v walk_v and_o be_v blameless_a but_o blame_v if_o they_o will_v not_o leave_v they_o sure_o i_o must_v needs_o say_v that_o they_o all_o deal_v very_o disingenous_o with_o the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o leave_v they_o now_o they_o have_v most_o need_v of_o they_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v many_o to_o there_o face_n and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o rejoice_v in_o there_o
