be_v most_o abominable_a to_o see_v their_o altar_n swim_v with_o blood_n or_o their_o hand_n to_o be_v so_o full_a of_o it_o their_o devotion_n may_v vie_v iniquity_n with_o their_o sin_n nor_o do_v

that_o the_o jew_n rest_v in_o they_o and_o make_v they_o the_o only_a considerable_a thing_n in_o their_o worship_n as_o if_o god_n be_v to_o value_v a_o man_n not_o by_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o
