the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v to_o inform_v you_o that_o all_o our_o book_n and_o declaration_n that_o for_o these_o many_o year_n have_v be_v publish_v to_o the_o world_n do_v clear_o testify_v to_o the_o contrary_a but_o yet_o for_o your_o sake_n this_o be_v now_o give_v forth_o that_o god_n who_o be_v the_o only_a wise_a omnipotent_a and_o everlasting_a god_n we_o do_v own_o and_o believe_v in_o who_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n and_o the_o preserver_n of_o all_o that_o he_o have_v make_v who_o be_v god_n

his_o belove_a and_o only_o beget_v son_n in_o who_o he_o be_v well-pleased_n who_o be_v conceive_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n in_o who_o we_o have_v redemption_n through_o his_o blood_n even_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n who_o be_v the_o express_a image_n of_o the_o invisible_a god_n the_o first-born_a of_o every_o creature_n by_o who_o be_v all_o thing_n create_v that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n visible_a and_o invisible_a whether_o they_o be_v throne_n or_o dominion_n or_o principality_n or_o power_n and_o we_o do_v own_o and_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v make_v to_o be_v as_o sin_n or_o a_o offence_n and_o curse_n for_o we_o who_o know_v no_o sin_n and_o be_v crucify_a for_o we_o in_o the_o flesh_n

saviour_n even_o the_o captain_n of_o our_o salvation_n who_o save_v we_o from_o sin_n as_o well_o as_o from_o hell_n and_o from_o the_o wrath_n to_o come_v and_o destroy_v the_o devil_n and_o his_o
