of_o these_o persecutor_n some_o of_o they_o be_v slay_v with_o the_o sword_n other_o take_v captive_n and_o their_o eye_n put_v out_o and_o they_o bind_v with_o chain_n and_o their_o house_n burn_v with_o fire_n this_o be_v the_o portion_n of_o hard-hearted_a persecutor_n again_o nebuchadnezer_n the_o king_n be_v a_o setter_n up_o of_o false_a worship_n and_o he_o grant_v forth_o order_n to_o

have_v suffer_v by_o proud_a corrupt_a man_n such_o as_o be_v enemy_n of_o righteousness_n again_o do_v not_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o elder_n and_o captain_n prove_v the_o great_a persecutor_n our_o saviour_n christ_n meet_v with_o it_o be_v the_o priest_n than_o that_o hunt_v after_o he_o to_o have_v he_o murder_v and_o how_o many_o time_n do_v they_o bely_v he_o and_o smite_v he_o on_o
