only_o of_o his_o hope_n wherein_o he_o may_v be_v deceive_v as_o other_o faithful_a man_n often_o be_v in_o their_o hope_n but_o the_o best_a reason_n against_o s._n paul_n go_v into_o spain_n be_v this_o if_o ever_o he_o be_v there_o then_o either_o at_o his_o first_o come_v to_o rome_n or_o at_o his_o second_o but_o in_o neither_o if_o in_o his_o first_o then_o either_o at_o his_o arrival_n

after_o the_o two_o year_n expire_v when_o he_o be_v set_v at_o liberty_n but_o then_o he_o return_v to_o visit_v the_o east_n church_n as_o he_o signify_v he_o will_v in_o diverse_a of_o his_o epistle_n write_v from_o rome_n and_o it_o be_v not_o like_a that_o he_o go_v first_o into_o spain_n and_o then_o back_o again_o into_o grecia_n and_o asia_n for_o these_o be_v east_n from_o rome_n spain_n lie_v towards_o the_o west_n neither_o at_o his_o second_o come_v to_o rome_n be_v it_o like_v he_o go_v into_o spain_n for_o than_o he_o be_v again_o apprehend_v by_o nero_n and_o there_o
