it_o as_o a_o great_a privilege_n only_o to_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n read_v to_o they_o 1._o those_o that_o can_v read_v it_o themselves_o 2._o they_o who_o have_v it_o not_o in_o a_o know_a tongue_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o reformation_n here_o in_o england_n when_o it_o be_v first_o order_v that_o the_o bible_n shall_v be_v read_v in_o english_a in_o the_o congregation_n that_o the_o people_n flock_v so_o very_a much_o to_o the_o church_n though_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n now_o despise_v and_o man_n make_v no_o account_n of_o come_v into_o church_n till_o after_o the_o chapter_n as_o if_o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n read_v by_o one_o who_o office_n it_o be_v to_o proclaim_v the_o divine_a counsel_n but_o if_o any_o will_v pretend_v that_o he_o can_v read_v the_o bible_n as_o well_o at_o home_n and_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o have_v it_o read_v by_o one_o of_o his_o own_o family_n as_o by_o christ_n minister_n and_o officer_n i_o will_v only_o say_v this_o that_o the_o sacred_a place_n and_o the_o time_n set_v apart_o for_o this_o thing_n and_o the_o presence_n of_o other_o may_v all_o contribute_v to_o his_o great_a attendance_n to_o and_o better_a observation_n of_o it_o mirum_fw-la judicium_fw-la oritur_fw-la ex_fw-la aliorum_fw-la praesentia_fw-la and_o when_o i_o see_v many_o other_o harken_v to_o the_o word_n read_v it_o will_v excite_v my_o attention_n and_o thereby_o help_v my_o understanding_n i_o need_v not_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n that_o care_n have_v be_v take_v in_o select_v those_o portion_n of_o scripture_n to_o be_v public_o read_v which_o be_v most_o easy_a to_o be_v understand_v and_o most_o useful_a and_o necessary_a to_o be_v remember_v and_o practise_v but_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v persuade_v himself_o that_o no_o benefit_n will_v come_v to_o he_o by_o conform_v to_o the_o order_n of_o the_o church_n in_o come_v to_o the_o public_a assembly_n to_o hear_v the_o

their_o attendance_n on_o the_o public_a read_n of_o the_o word_n will_v proclaim_v to_o the_o world_n that_o they_o be_v the_o only_a ignorant_a person_n if_o none_o else_o will_v come_v to_o hear_v it_o and_o the_o shame_n of_o this_o may_v make_v they_o absent_v themselves_o too_o because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o so_o altogether_o and_o only_o without_o understanding_n therefore_o to_o encourage_v and_o keep_v they_o in_o countenance_n even_o such_o as_o can_v themselves_o read_v shall_v come_v to_o church_n to_o hear_v the_o scripture_n read_v though_o there_o be_v other_o reason_n to_o move_v they_o to_o this_o but_o beside_o the_o bare_a read_n there_o be_v also_o the_o expound_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n in_o the_o public_a congregation_n and_o it_o be_v
