the_o great_a kingdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o we_o weight_n for_o be_v even_o this_o that_o i_o do_v now_o mention_v and_o by_o this_o mean_v all_o kingdom_n and_o nation_n shall_v become_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n because_o he_o shall_v rule_v they_o in_o all_o thing_n by_o his_o holy_a word_n human_a wisdom_n in_o learned_a nation_n will_v be_v loath_a to_o yield_v to_o christ_n so_o far_o much_o less_o will_v prince_n and_o monarch_n ready_o yield_v so_o far_o to_o stoop_v to_o christ_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n will_v shake_v all_o nation_n and_o put_v they_o into_o

light_n and_o courage_n to_o this_o poor_a indian_a for_o although_o former_o he_o have_v be_v a_o harmless_a man_n among_o they_o yet_o as_o themselves_o say_v not_o at_o all_o account_v of_o and_o

his_o own_o soul_n and_o his_o neighbour_n with_o he_o now_o it_o after_o these_o thing_n it_o please_v god_n to_o move_v the_o heart_n of_o towanquatick_a encourage_v by_o some_o other_o among_o they_o to_o desire_v i_o to_o preach_v unto_o they_o at_o my_o come_n this_o man_n speak_v thus_o unto_o i_o that_o a_o long_a time_n ago_o they_o have_v wise_a man_n which_o in_o a_o grave_a manner_n

in_o the_o country_n and_o the_o indian_n fool_n still_o but_o he_o hope_v the_o time_n of_o knowledge_n be_v now_o come_v wherefore_o himself_o with_o other_o desire_v i_o to_o give_v they_o a_o

the_o indian_n grow_v more_o in_o goodness_n to_o have_v their_o posterity_n inherit_v blessing_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a and_o himself_o be_v desirous_a to_o put_v the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o his_o
