ditch_n it_o will_v be_v too_o tedious_a and_o draw_v out_o too_o long_a a_o volume_n to_o answer_v that_o author_n in_o every_o particular_a of_o his_o blind_a discourse_n therefore_o i_o will_v

in_o many_o of_o these_o people_n for_o a_o hypocrite_n can_v hardly_o beguile_v they_o though_o he_o may_v come_v with_o never_o so_o fair_a pretence_n to_o try_v they_o and_o let_v a_o hyhocrite_n

these_o be_v typpicall_a thing_n under_o this_o dispensation_n in_o which_o we_o live_v and_o they_o hold_v it_o out_o in_o the_o mystery_n the_o die_n with_o christ_n and_o the_o live_n with_o

so_o the_o type_n under_o the_o gospel_n end_n when_o christ_n appear_v in_o the_o spirit_n but_o none_o will_v believe_v the_o great_a mystery_n herein_o but_o such_o as_o have_v find_v the_o same_o

much_o to_o relate_v so_o i_o say_v to_o answer_v all_o his_o false_a accusation_n will_v be_v too_o tedious_a but_o as_o he_o go_v on_o in_o his_o discourse_n he_o light_v on_o a_o great_a hole_n
