will_v hold_v out_o so_o long_o who_o come_v disintere_v hither_o this_o second_o part_n of_o this_o sermon_n shall_v be_v spend_v in_o the_o pursuit_n of_o that_o which_o master_n deane_z of_o

the_o present_a separation_n of_o these_o time_n do_v build_v themselves_o these_o ground_n therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o in_o the_o next_o place_n call_v to_o some_o reckon_n and_o account_n and_o in_o the_o do_n of_o this_o i_o will_v hang_v up_o a_o pair_n of_o scale_n before_o you_o you_o shall_v see_v their_o argument_n place_v in_o one_o scale_n and_o my_o answer_n in_o the_o other_o and_o

for_o by_o this_o shall_v all_o man_n know_v say_v he_o that_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n if_o you_o love_v one_o another_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o 13._o chapter_n of_o john_n at_o the_o

it_o pretend_v indeed_o very_o much_o to_o the_o spirit_n and_o at_o first_o clothes_n itself_o in_o the_o dress_n of_o humility_n and_o meekn●sse_n but_o they_o who_o have_v write_v the_o chronicle_n
