then_o shall_v the_o fall_v of_o jerusalem_n and_o the_o end_n be_v nevertheless_o there_o be_v both_o learned_a &_o unlearned_a of_o this_o opinion_n that_o since_o the_o world_n so_o long_o after_o these_o prophecy_n have_v continue_v as_o before_o that_o the_o end_n be_v not_o near_o and_o that_o the_o world_n shall_v continue_v still_o immutable_a but_o let_v they_o persevere_v in_o their_o

after_o their_o time_n the_o world_n can_v not_o endure_v sure_o then_o it_o be_v most_o probable_a that_o this_o be_v the_o age_n in_o which_o the_o end_n must_v come_v now_o that_o we_o may_v have_v some_o proof_n that_o the_o world_n can_v endure_v long_o because_o the_o gospel_n be_v say_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o all_o nation_n hear_v saint_n jerome_n who_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o there_o be_v in_o his_o time_n no_o nation_n that_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n for_o he_o say_v although_o they_o have_v no_o preacher_n yet_o they_o can_v but_o hear_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o their_o neighbour_n nation_n this_o prosper_n confirm_v no_o part_n of_o the_o world_n be_v without_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n some_o of_o all_o sort_n and_o of_o all_o

destroy_v to_o conclude_v this_o point_n since_o probable_o by_o this_o great_a motive_n we_o be_v induce_v to_o believe_v that_o the_o end_n be_v at_o hand_n and_o that_o the_o day_n and_o hour_n thereof_o be_v uncertain_a it_o shall_v stir_v we_o up_o to_o a_o more_o holy_a course_n of_o life_n lest_o that_o our_o desolation_n and_o confusion_n overtake_v we_o unaware_o but_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o understand_v and_o believe_v what_o have_v be_v before_o show_v the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v a_o most_o firm_a argument_n to_o inform_v we_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o
