thou_o therefore_o believe_v the_o just_a but_o believe_v the_o unjust_a in_o nothing_o for_o righteousness_n have_v the_o right_a way_n but_o unrighteousness_n the_o evil_a but_o keep_v thou_o the_o

neither_o thorny_a thou_o see_v therefore_o that_o better_a it_o be_v to_o go_v by_o this_o way_n for_o thou_o shall_v go_v say_v he_o &_o whosoever_o from_o their_o whole_a heart_n have_v believe_v

its_o work_n be_v pernicious_a and_o overthrow_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n when_o therefore_o these_o thing_n shall_v ascend_v into_o thy_o heart_n thou_o shall_v understand_v from_o its_o work_n this_o to_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o iniquity_n 5_o how_o lord_n shall_v i_o understand_v hear_v quoth_v he_o and_o understand_v when_o wrath_n shall_v happen_v to_o thou_o or_o bitterness_n

understand_v now_o and_o believe_v the_o genius_n of_o righteousness_n because_o its_o teach_v be_v good_a for_o though_o a_o man_n be_v most_o happy_a and_o the_o cogitation_n of_o the_o other_o

of_o righteousness_n ascend_v up_o into_o his_o heart_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o he_o or_o she_o do_v something_o of_o good_a thou_o see_v therefore_o that_o it_o be_v good_a to_o follow_v the_o spirit_n of_o equity_n if_o therefore_o thou_o shall_v follow_v it_o and_o shall_v believe_v its_o work_n thou_o shall_v live_v to_o god_n and_o they_o who_o shall_v believe_v its_o work_n

to_o thou_o vision_n iv_o 1_o brethren_n i_o see_v a_o vision_n after_o twenty_o day_n of_o the_o former_a vision_n the_o figure_n of_o tribulation_n about_o to_o come_v upon_o we_o for_o i_o be_v

i_o walk_v alone_o entreat_v the_o lord_n that_o these_o revelation_n which_o he_o show_v to_o i_o by_o his_o holy_a church_n he_o will_v confirm_v and_o will_v grant_v repentance_n unto_o all_o his_o

and_o i_o shall_v honour_v he_o and_o give_v he_o thanks_o as_o it_o be_v a_o voice_n answer_v unto_o i_o doubt_v not_o hermas_n 3_o i_o begin_v therefore_o to_o think_v within_o i_o and_o to_o say_v what_o have_v i_o to_o doubt_v so_o ground_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o who_o have_v see_v honourable_a thing_n 4_o i_o go_v forward_o a_o little_a brethren_n and_o behold_v i_o see_v the_o dust_n up_o to_o heaven_n i_o begin_v to_o say_v within_o i_o what_o do_v the_o cattle_n come_v and_o stir_v up_o the_o dust_n but_o it_o be_v distant_a from_o i_o as_o it_o be_v a_o furlong_n and_o behold_v i_o see_v the_o dust_n more_o and_o more_o arise_v so_o that_o i_o suspect_v it_o to_o be_v something_o from_o above_o 5_o but_o the_o sun_n shine_v a_o little_a and_o behold_v i_o see_v a_o great_a beast_n like_a unto_o a_o whale_n and_o out_o of_o his_o mouth_n proceed_v fiery_a locust_n but_o the_o stature_n of_o that_o beast_n be_v almost_o a_o hundred_o foot_n but_o he_o have_v a_o head_n like_o a_o round_a urnal_a vessel_n i_o begin_v to_o weep_v and_o invoke_v the_o lord_n that_o he_o may_v deliver_v i_o from_o it_o then_o i_o remember_v the_o word_n which_o i_o have_v hear_v doubt_v not_o hermas_n 6_o therefore_o brethren_n have_v put_v on_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n and_o remember_v he_o that_o teach_v i_o great_a thing_n i_o deliver_v myself_o bold_o upon_o the_o beast_n but_o so_o do_v that_o beast_n come_v so_o that_o it_o can_v in_o one_o stroke_n crush_v a_o city_n i_o come_v near_o it_o and_o the_o beast_n so_o huge_a extend_v itself_o upon_o the_o earth_n and_o do_v show_v forth_o nothing_o but_o its_o tongue_n and_o at_o all_o do_v not_o move_v itself_o until_o i_o have_v pass_v over_o it_o all_o 7_o but_o that_o beast_n have_v upon_o its_o head_n four_o colour_n black_a then_o red_a and_o bloody_a then_o golden_a then_o white_a but_o after_o i_o have_v go_v over_o it_o i_o go_v forward_o nigh_o thirty_o foot_n and_o behold_v there_o meet_v i_o a_o

because_o thou_o have_v throw_v down_o thy_o solitude_n and_o solicitude_n before_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v open_v thy_o heart_n unto_o he_o believe_v that_o by_o no_o other_o thou_o can_v be_v
