the_o witness_n of_o god_n christ_n jesus_n in_o they_o that_o he_o may_v direct_v every_o one_o of_o they_o what_o to_o do_v to_o have_v the_o leprosy_n of_o sin_n do_v away_o and_o iniquity_n purge_v out_o and_o as_o the_o prophet_n in_o samaria_n direct_v naaman_n to_o wash_v seven_o time_n in_o outward_a jordan_n to_o have_v his_o outward_a leprosy_n wash_v away_o so_o this_o inward_a prophet_n christ_n jesus_n in_o we_o have_v direct_v all_o who_o be_v true_o come_v unto_o he_o to_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n with_o which_o he_o have_v light_v they_o till_o they_o witness_v his_o

themselves_o to_o have_v a_o precious_a virtue_n to_o cleanse_v from_o the_o leprosy_n of_o sin_n and_o this_o we_o feel_v that_o the_o often_o we_o wash_v in_o this_o heavenly_a jordan_n the_o clean_a we_o be_v and_o the_o more_o tender_a we_o be_v that_o even_o some_o have_v their_o inward_a flesh_n or_o heart_n of_o flesh_n make_v as_o tender_a as_o the_o flesh_n of_o a_o new_a bear_v

naaman_n i_o take_v notice_n of_o several_a clear_a thing_n open_v to_o i_o by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n first_o we_o see_v that_o after_o naaman_n have_v give_v car_n to_o the_o advice_n and_o counsel_n of_o the_o little_a maid_n he_o go_v to_o the_o king_n of_o syria_n his_o master_n who_o be_v so_o far_o from_o hinder_v he_o that_o he_o write_v a_o letter_n with_o he_o &_o direct_v it_o to_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n but_o herein_o he_o be_v mistake_v for_o he_o shall_v have_v direct_v naaman_n to_o the_o prophet_n according_a to_o the_o little_a maid_n advice_n and_o we_o see_v likewise_o how_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n think_v that_o the_o king_n of_o syria_n be_v seek_v a_o quarrel_n against_o he_o as_o you_o may_v read_v at_o large_a in_o 2_o king_n 5._o now_o the_o little_a maid_n have_v not_o direct_v he_o to_o the_o king_n but_o to_o go_v to_o the_o prophet_n for_o the_o king_n can_v not_o do_v it_o and_o so_o there_o jealousy_n arise_v from_o a_o mistake_n as_o too_o to_o many_o do_v this_o day_n many_o be_v the_o quarrelling_n contending_n warring_n and_o fight_n that_o arise_v from_o mistake_v one_o party_n cry_v lo_o here_o and_o another_o party_n cry_v lo_o there_o be_v christ_n and_o to_o tell_v the_o truth_n neither_o of_o they_o know_v where_o be_v christ_n and_o when_o wisdom_n little_a maiden_n direct_v they_o both_o and_o all_o of_o they_o to_o the_o true_a light_n in_o themselves_o to_o christ_n the_o true_a prophet_n in_o themselves_o they_o reject_v their_o advice_n and_o counsel_n and_o say_v it_o be_v not_o he_o call_v his_o light_n in_o they_o but_o natural_a and_o insufficient_a for_o they_o and_o many_o of_o they_o give_v it_o very_o bad_a name_n and_o so_o reject_v it_o and_o turn_v from_o it_o and_o fall_v a_o
