they_o that_o touch_v they_o touch_v the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n but_o in_o his_o name_n and_o by_o his_o power_n their_o be_v much_o hurt_n do_v to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n all_o the_o nation_n over_o and_o it_o will_v lie_v heavy_a upon_o he_o at_o the_o last_o and_o that_o the_o teacher_n of_o the_o people_n do_v cause_v they_o to_o err_v and_o he_o know_v the_o priest_n portion_n and_o when_o i_o touch_v upon_o that_o he_o will_v say_v there_o be_v for_o you_o mr_n harrison_n to_o the_o priest_n that_o stand_v there_o and_o the_o power_n and_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o with_o i_o that_o it_o make_v the_o man_n to_o be_v much_o concern_v and_o when_o i_o have_v do_v he_o ask_v the_o priest_n what_o he_o have_v to_o say_v to_o that_o which_o i_o speak_v and_o the_o priest_n say_v it_o be_v all_o very_a true_a and_o very_a good_a and_o he_o have_v nothing_o to_o say_v against_o it_o if_o we_o do_v speak_v as_o we_o mean_v then_o i_o tell_v the_o priest_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v true_a and_o do_v speak_v as_o it_o mean_v and_o mean_v as_o it_o speak_v but_o man_n of_o corrupt_a mind_n do_v pervert_v the_o scripture_n by_o put_v their_o own_o

they_o be_v inspire_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o they_o be_v of_o no_o private_a interpretation_n but_o none_o understand_v they_o but_o those_o that_o read_v they_o by_o the_o same_o spirit_n that_o give_v they_o forth_o so_o i_o return_v to_o my_o lodging_n which_o be_v at_o one_o captain_n rich_a his_o house_n and_o he_o come_v home_o and_o say_v that_o the_o deputy_n be_v so_o sad_a

in_o my_o youth_n and_o tender_a year_n i_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o be_v afraid_a to_o offend_v he_o and_o be_v zealous_a and_o diligent_a in_o the_o profession_n i_o be_v in_o and_o seek_v the_o

behaviour_n and_o deportment_n be_v such_o that_o it_o preach_v before_o ever_o they_o open_v their_o mouth_n and_o it_o be_v then_o reveal_v to_o i_o that_o they_o have_v the_o everlasting_a gospel_n
