even_o the_o lord_n and_o for_o any_o professor_n you_o speak_v on_o who_o be_v so_o bitter_a against_o the_o christian_n as_o your_o ancient_a and_o zealous_a jew_n you_o know_v the_o prophecy_n your_o old_a man_n shall_v dream_v dream_n and_o your_o young_a man_n shall_v see_v vision_n and_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v last_o and_o the_o last_o first_o p._n what_o will_v you_o have_v i_o speak_v well_o of_o these_o that_o so_o many_o speak_v against_o c._n i_o will_v not_o wish_v you_o to_o speak_v well_o of_o any_o thing_n but_o what_o you_o be_v persuade_v in_o from_o the_o word_n but_o i_o will_v only_o desire_v you_o not_o to_o speak_v ill_a though_o you_o speak_v not_o well_o the_o apostle_n rebuke_n those_o that_o speak_v evil_a of_o the_o thing_n they_o know_v not_o but_o i_o have_v many_o reason_n i_o shall_v now_o acquaint_v you_o with_o if_o you_o will_v but_o have_v patience_n and_o not_o upon_o a_o notion_n or_o name_n of_o heresy_n and_o schism_n shut_v up_o

angel_n unaware_o and_o this_o be_v one_o reason_n further_o till_o more_o come_v we_o be_v but_o come_v out_o of_o babylon_n you_o and_o we_o be_v but_o the_o other_o day_n with_o the_o veil_n of_o
