truth_n and_o consider_v in_o my_o mind_n the_o exceed_a preciousness_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o truth_n in_o order_n to_o bring_v other_o and_o myself_o unto_o eternal_a life_n it_o be_v equal_o necessary_a for_o that_o end_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n to_o keep_v and_o preserve_v temporal_a life_n as_o eternal_a life_n be_v much_o beyond_o and_o better_a than_o this_o present_a temporal_a life_n yea_o more_o than_o ten_o thousand_o fold_n here_o to_o allude_v unto_o those_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n yet_o i_o have_v rather_o speak_v five_o word_n with_o my_o understanding_n that_o by_o my_o voice_n i_o may_v teach_v other_o also_o than_o ten_o thousand_o word_n in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n in_o like_a manner_n if_o i_o have_v so_o much_o money_n i_o have_v rather_o bestow_v

be_v to_o feed_v their_o body_n only_o or_o suppose_v i_o have_v wherewithal_o and_o i_o do_v bestow_v five_o pound_n towards_o the_o publish_v of_o god_n eternal_a truth_n and_o also_o i_o do_v indeed_o bestow_v ten_o thousand_o pound_n towards_o feed_v of_o the_o poor_a yet_o i_o shall_v have_v more_o expectation_n of_o a_o better_a reward_n from_o god_n for_o the_o five_o pound_n expend_v that_o way_n than_o from_o the_o ten_o thousand_o pound_n distribute_v the_o other_o way_n because_o of_o the_o so_o much_o more_o excellency_n and_o preciousness_n of_o truth_n which_o be_v for_o the_o save_n of_o the_o soul_n over_o outward_a alm_n which_o be_v only_o for_o feed_v of_o the_o body_n it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o god_n buy_v the_o truth_n and_o sell_v it_o not_o also_o
