not_o i_o will_v make_v thou_o a_o god_n to_o moses_n but_o contrary_o i_o will_v make_v moses_n a_o god_n to_o thou_o whence_o we_o see_v that_o god_n from_o the_o beginning_n do_v not_o purpose_n

of_o holies_n as_o there_o be_v church_n therefore_o in_o this_o point_n the_o walachrian_a judaisme_n be_v fall_v into_o a_o swoon_n now_o levites_n have_v no_o external_a sacrifice_n peculiar_a

commit_v extraordinary_o to_o some_o as_o to_o isaac_n moses_n no_o daniel_n and_o job_n but_o this_o be_v no_o levitical_a or_o ordinary_a privilege_n but_o proceed_v from_o the_o person_n whether_o

to_o pray_v public_o may_v not_o be_v only_o fit_a to_o do_v that_o modest_o but_o also_o acceptable_a to_o god_n for_o their_o piety_n for_o in_o many_o there_o be_v such_o a_o confuse_a babble_n

special_a sanctity_n in_o prayer_n under_o the_o levite_n why_o then_o shall_v it_o be_v under_o these_o new_a levite_n he_o seek_v for_o prerogative_n in_o preach_v and_o say_v praedicatio_fw-la
