25._o but_o a_o great_a number_n in_o our_o day_n send_v themselves_o into_o the_o vineyard_n as_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v say_v not_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o

for_o whereas_o there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n of_o declare_v the_o gospel_n to_o wit_n sermo_fw-la and_o scriptio_fw-la word_n and_o writing_n by_o the_o tongue_n and_o the_o pen_n this_o latter_a be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n principal_o intend_v when_o he_o say_v we_o declare_v we_o write_v that_o be_v we_o declare_v by_o writing_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v several_a advantage_n in_o

we_o in_o which_o respect_n writing_n be_v witty_o style_v a_o invention_n to_o deceive_v absence_n and_o therefore_o st._n paul_n make_v use_v of_o it_o for_o this_o very_a end_n when_o he_o say_v to_o the_o corinthian_n be_v absent_a i_o write_v unto_o you_o whereas_o by_o the_o voice_n we_o only_o speak_v to_o those_o who_o be_v present_a and_o in_o a_o little_a compass_n of_o ground_n

again_o by_o this_o it_o be_v we_o speak_v not_o only_o while_o alive_a but_o when_o we_o be_v dead_a and_o so_o declare_v the_o truth_n not_o only_o to_o they_o who_o be_v coaetaneous_a with_o we_o but_o shall_v in_o future_a age_n succeed_v after_o we_o in_o which_o regard_n that_o of_o the_o psalmist_n be_v very_o suitable_a evang_n this_o shall_v be_v write_v for_o the_o generation_n to_o

that_o st._n john_n and_o other_o of_o the_o apostle_n do_v show_v by_o writing_n since_o the_o christian_n of_o those_o time_n be_v scatter_v up_o and_o down_o by_o persecution_n so_o that_o the_o

therefore_o they_o make_v use_v of_o this_o way_n to_o declare_v by_o writing_n that_o which_o we_o be_v from_o hence_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o be_v double_a 1._o in_o special_a the_o industry_n
