have_v labour_v to_o prove_v and_o maintain_v for_o truth_n four_o i_o be_o ready_a to_o receive_v a_o confutation_n in_o any_o thing_n wherein_o you_o can_v with_o either_o scripture_n or_o reason_n

the_o wolf_n do_v watch_v to_o make_v a_o prey_n of_o chief_o therefore_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o secure_v they_o and_o then_o i_o pass_v very_o little_a to_o meet_v with_o both_o fox_n wolf_n

before_o you_o look_v in_o the_o text_n itself_o for_o many_o writer_n do_v not_o rehearse_v the_o sentence_n itself_o but_o name_v the_o place_n and_o so_o go_v on_o in_o argument_n with_o it_o and_o many_o time_n the_o reader_n make_v a_o conclusion_n as_o the_o author_n of_o the_o book_n do_v conceive_v to_o be_v the_o truth_n although_o it_o be_v many_o time_n false_a therefore_o it_o be_v

they_o do_v much_o contend_v with_o each_o other_o as_o in_o the_o 11_o verse_n you_o may_v see_v and_o therefore_o they_o be_v partial_a in_o respect_v and_o affect_v of_o their_o teacher_n without_o
