Or Profes [sic] of Christianitie both out of the Scriptures, and auncient rabbins, to convince the Iewes, of their palpable, and more then miserable blindnesse (if more may be) for their long, vaine, and endlesse expectation of their Messiah (as they dreame) yet for to come. Written in Barbarie, in the yeare 1610, and for that cause directed to the dispersed Iewes of that countrie, and in them to all others now groaning under the heavy yoake of this their long and intollerable captivitie, which yet one day shall have an end ...

on_o earth_n he_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o there_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n david_n say_v thou_o be_v go_v up_o on_o high_a thou_o have_v lead_v captivity_n captive_a 18_o

that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o ascend_v up_o to_o heaven_n at_o his_o pleasure_n and_o hereof_o we_o have_v also_o all_o his_o apostle_n and_o disciple_n for_o witness_n eye-witness_n in_o who_o
