if_o we_o search_v the_o school_n of_o all_o age_n and_o all_o place_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o from_o time_n to_o time_n they_o be_v man_n of_o great_a renown_n great_a honour_n and_o virtue_n therefore_o that_o we_o may_v the_o more_o orderly_o view_v their_o trace_n throughout_o these_o school_n first_o let_v we_o enter_v into_o the_o old_a school_n of_o god_n people_n which_o school_n we_o will_v call_v the_o school_n of_o the_o hebrew_n second_o let_v we_o step_v aside_o into_o the_o school_n of_o the_o gentile_n which_o we_o may_v call_v the_o school_n of_o humanity_n three_o we_o will_v come_v near_o to_o our_o own_o school_n comprehend_v in_o it_o the_o school_n of_o christianity_n in_o the_o first_o school_n therefore_o though_o adam_n be_v contain_v hebrew_n who_o no_o doubt_n do_v his_o duty_n in_o teach_v his_o child_n yet_o for_o that_o we_o find_v no_o evidence_n thereof_o in_o writing_n we_o will_v pass_v by_o he_o and_o come_v to_o his_o son_n seth_n a_o very_a godly_a and_o learned_a schoolmaster_n as_o i_o may_v term_v he_o for_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v record_v that_o in_o his_o day_n man_n begin_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o to_o 3._o call_v
