it_o be_v report_v of_o augustus_n the_o emperor_n that_o sup_v with_o one_o pollio_n he_o be_v inform_v that_o a_o servant_n of_o pollio_n have_v break_v a_o crystal_n glass_n of_o his_o master_n a_o

a_o marvelous_a sore_a sentence_n for_o such_o a_o fault_n the_o emperor_n reverse_v the_o sentence_n and_o think_v it_o punishment_n enough_o to_o the_o servant_n to_o have_v be_v in_o fear_n of_o

curse_v you_o mero●h_o say_v the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n curse_v you_o the_o inhabitant_n thereof_o because_o they_o come_v not_o out_o to_o help_v the_o lord_n to_o help_v the_o lord_n against_o

the_o subject_n be_v the_o charge_n of_o prince_n for_o to_o this_o end_n have_v god_n ordain_v they_o witness_v the_o apostle_n rom._n 13._o he_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n for_o thy_o wealth_n for_o thy_o good_a if_o then_o do_v well_o for_o thy_o comfort_n if_o thou_o do_v ill_a for_o thy_o terror_n and_o yet_o therein_o for_o thy_o good_a for_o it_o be_v as_o good_a for_o some_o to_o be_v

common_a good_a as_o if_o no_o blessing_n can_v be_v pass_v to_o his_o people_n but_o under_o the_o great_a seal_n of_o their_o office_n a_o wonderful_a honour_n unto_o they_o for_o even_o as_o

much_o encourage_v christian_a prince_n to_o do_v their_o office_n the_o benefit_n whereof_o be_v so_o universal_a and_o if_o it_o may_v please_v prince_n sometime_o to_o look_v about_o they_o and_o when_o they_o shall_v see_v a_o poor_a man_n labour_v and_o toil_a all_o day_n as_o a_o servant_n in_o base_a work_n and_o all_o for_o the_o back_n and_o belly_n or_o perhaps_o for_o a_o few_o poor_a

that_o we_o may_v be_v worthy_a of_o gracious_a usage_n and_o if_o perhaps_o something_o fall_v out_o otherwise_o let_v we_o remember_v that_o of_o solomon_n if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o
