himself_o go_v after_o these_o god_n which_o in_o scripture_n language_n signify_v common_o the_o real_a commit_v idolatry_n with_o such_o go_n and_o do_v but_o remember_v what_o the_o service_n of_o

child_n to_o he_o and_o observe_v that_o solomon_n go_v after_o milcom_a or_o molec_n and_o build_v high_a place_n to_o molec_n and_o how_o little_a short_a that_o do_v come_v of_o jephtha_n

strange_a thing_n with_o they_o to_o offer_v such_o barbarous_a and_o bloody_a sacrifice_n as_o their_o own_o child_n that_o you_o may_v guess_v that_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o time_n may_v suggest_v to_o jephtha_n the_o fancy_n of_o offer_v some_o such_o sacrifice_n of_o man_n or_o woman_n to_o god_n the_o rather_o since_o three_o that_o he_o be_v now_o go_v to_o fight_v against_o the_o

if_o he_o vow_v and_o offer_v such_o another_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n we_o observe_v before_o that_o nothing_o can_v come_v out_o of_o the_o door_n of_o his_o house_n to_o meet_v he_o that_o can_v be_v fit_a to_o be_v sacrifice_v by_o any_o warrant_n or_o allowance_n of_o god_n not_o his_o dog_n nor_o his_o servant_n and_o therefore_o that_o his_o word_n can_v but_o be_v conjunctive_a whatsoever_o meet_v i_o shall_v be_v the_o lord_n and_o i_o will_v offer_v it_o up_o and_o that_o the_o strictness_n of_o his_o vow_n as_o he_o conceive_v it_o do_v put_v he_o on_o to_o the_o

to_o when_o he_o reckon_v he_o among_o the_o faithful_a and_o those_o that_o die_v in_o the_o faith_n i_o shall_v fix_v only_o upon_o one_o observation_n which_o fair_o offer_v itself_o unto_o we_o take_v we_o the_o story_n one_o way_n or_o other_o that_o he_o sacrifice_v his_o daughter_n or_o only_o devote_v she_o to_o perpetual_a virginity_n viz._n what_o care_n prudence_n and_o piety_n man_n
