we_o that_o the_o self_n same_o prophet_n may_v seem_v as_o much_o to_o have_v be_v preserve_v for_o ú_n against_o this_o time_n that_o now_o we_o be_v in_o as_o he_o be_v before_o send_v unto_o

of_o the_o last_o year_n in_o much_o like_a sort_n lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o we_o as_o he_o do_v upon_o they_o and_o yet_o also_o do_v in_o very_o plain_a and_o sensible_a manner_n but_o as_o théy_v be_v senseless_a and_o can_v not_o see_v it_o &_o therefore_o turn_v nor_o unto_o the_o lord_n that_o so_o have_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o they_o so_o wé_v likewise_o at_o this_o present_a have_v notable_o be_v provoke_v diverse_a way_n to_o acknowledge_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n upon_o we_o and_o to_o turn_v unto_o he_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o have_v not_o do_v it_o but_o either_o shame_n with_o it_o or_o think_v it_o needless_a to_o take_v such_o a_o course_n and_o yet_o as_o at_o that_o time_n god_n do_v but_o with_o one_o hand_n shake_v the_o rod_n at_o they_o &_o with_o

therefore_o this_o call_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v to_o special_a good_a use_n unto_o thém_n to_o quicken_v they_o up_o both_o to_o a_o sensible_a feel_n of_o that_o hand_n of_o god_n upon_o they_o

down_o therein_o rest_v in_o two_o principal_a point_n that_o the_o matter_n follow_v in_o all_o this_o prophecy_n come_v from_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v deliver_v unto_o the_o people_n by_o the_o

to_o be_v gather_v of_o we_o so_o well_o as_o we_o may_v because_o that_o otherwise_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o prophet_n must_v needs_o be_v hard_a unto_o we_o as_o also_o it_o be_v sufficient_o know_v that_o thát_o have_v give_v a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o occasion_n that_o the_o interpreter_n have_v vary_v so_o much_o in_o their_o judgement_n thereon_o first_o therefore_o to_o examine_v

accord_v unto_o that_o compass_n of_o time_n that_o in_o my_o judgement_n we_o may_v rather_o marvel_v that_o diverse_a there_o be_v of_o very_o good_a account_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o worthy_o too_o that_o do_v not_o see_v it_o then_o that_o ourselves_o need_v to_o stand_v in_o doubt_n thereof_o for_o not_o only_o the_o whole_a matter_n do_v fit_o agree_v to_o that_o which_o be_v

of_o the_o treatise_n and_o then_o either_o to_o stand_v or_o to_o fall_v in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o indifferent_a reader_n together_o by_o compare_v this_o our_o prophet_n and_o isaiah_n
