in_o the_o late_a providential_a manner_n of_o the_o return_n of_o the_o protestant_n of_o savoy_n through_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o most_o inveterate_a and_o most_o powerful_a opposer_n the_o

and_o then_o that_o which_o in_o the_o prophecy_n be_v call_v their_o resurrection_n three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a after_o their_o death_n must_v fall_v just_a about_o the_o time_n that_o the_o

have_v be_v so_o much_o the_o main_a body_n of_o the_o witness_n for_o many_o age_n before_o the_o reformation_n that_o since_o the_o first_o revival_n be_v agree_v from_o the_o prophecy_n to_o be_v

the_o judgement_n of_o this_o prophecy_n the_o foundation_n of_o a_o building_n may_v be_v settle_v upon_o a_o rock_n though_o some_o part_n of_o the_o superstructure_n shall_v fall_v for_o want_v of_o a_o immediate_a and_o close_a coherence_n with_o it_o and_o if_o this_o first_o foundation_n be_v but_o once_o agree_v on_o and_o well_o regard_v by_o all_o party_n of_o protestant_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o see_v how_o influential_a it_o must_v needs_o be_v for_o the_o strengthen_n of_o the_o common_a interest_n of_o the_o reformation_n the_o dreadful_a character_n that_o be_v here_o set_v

of_o god_n and_o the_o present_a cry_v misery_n of_o their_o enslave_v brethren_n be_v more_o than_o sufficient_a to_o make_v they_o silence_v all_o their_o little_a unnecessary_a heat_n and_o
