upon_o that_o law_n which_o forbid_v to_o mussel_n the_o ox_n that_o treadethe_v out_o the_o corn_n for_o god_n in_o make_v that_o law_n have_v not_o so_o great_a respect_n to_o ox_n and_o beast_n

off_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o tymothy_n he_o alledgethe_v both_o these_o testimony_n that_o off_o the_o law_n and_o this_o off_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o same_o place_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o

to_o be_v esteem_v infidel_n by_o the_o apostle_n precept_n iff_n they_o provide_v not_o for_o their_o own_o especial_o for_o their_o own_o household_n 5.8_o and_o although_o it_o be_v not_o easy_a to_o set_v a_o certain_a rate_n how_o they_o shall_v be_v provide_v for_o by_o reason_n off_o the_o great_a diversity_n off_o time_n and_o person_n yet_o general_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o deal_v with_o they_o spare_o covetous_o and_o pinch_o but_o contrariwise_o friendly_a gentle_o and_o liberal_o for_o if_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o gospel_n off_o christ_n with_o that_o mind_n we_o ought_v we_o will_v also_o make_v much_o off_o the_o minister_n off_o the_o same_o which_o mind_n and_o affection_n paul_n himself_o testify_v that_o the_o galatian_n have_v

when_o the_o rest_n off_o the_o egyptian_n for_o famine_v be_v compel_v to_o sell_v their_o flock_n and_o drove_n and_o even_o their_o land_n and_o possession_n for_o corn_n until_o that_o be_v the_o

how_o beneficial_a and_o liberal_a papist_n be_v to_o the_o mainteininge_n off_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n for_o it_o be_v almost_o incredible_a what_o cost_n they_o make_v upon_o there_o

that_z the_o matter_n may_v carry_v more_o credit_n and_o authority_n with_o it_o as_o for_o i_o i_o lament_v with_o he_o this_o miserable_a state_n of_o our_o church_n which_o almost_o in_o every_o

shall_v be_v scarce_o able_a to_o maintain_v his_o life_n neither_o be_v it_o destitute_a only_o at_o this_o present_a time_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_z it_o be_v always_o like_a to_o be_v so_o here_o after_o and_o that_o the_o study_n off_o god_n his_o word_n shall_v be_v neglect_v for_o no_o man_n will_v willing_o follow_v that_o trade_n off_o life_n wherein_o he_o have_v only_a
