of_o babylon_n which_o as_o it_o be_v likely_a feel_v more_o of_o the_o mede_n fury_n than_o any_o place_n of_o the_o assyrian_a empire_n beside_o that_o therefore_o he_o may_v more_o lively_o set_v out_o the_o calamity_n which_o shall_v befall_v the_o king_n of_o assyria_n he_o call_v he_o the_o king_n of_o babylon_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o king_n of_o that_o babylon_n who_o

the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v captive_a in_o babylon_n than_o in_o any_o other_o place_n of_o the_o assyrian_a empire_n beside_o and_o more_o hardly_o and_o cruel_o use_v there_o and_o there_o
