the_o leprosy_n of_o naaman_n do_v cleave_v unto_o gehazi_n and_o the_o leprosy_n of_o gehazi_n do_v cleave_v to_o his_o seed_n forever_o according_a to_o the_o prophet_n word_n and_o now_o the_o gehazians_n have_v lose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o true_a prophet_n and_o they_o have_v lose_v the_o knowledge_n of_o spiritual_a jordan_n and_o therefore_o their_o leprosy_n remain_v their_o

imperfection_n will_v remain_v while_o we_o be_v on_o this_o side_n of_o the_o grave_a but_o what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v with_o they_o or_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v more_o of_o they_o for_o the_o day_n break_v and_o the_o light_n arise_v wherein_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v manifest_a to_o all_o that_o will_v but_o open_v their_o eye_n to_o see_v they_o and_o they_o that_o will_v not_o must_v

etc._n etc._n and_o now_o to_o our_o purpose_n in_o hand_n phlip_n the_o evangelist_n have_v four_o daughter_n virgin_n which_o do_v prophesy_v as_o you_o may_v read_v act_v 21._o 8_o 9_o and_o paul_n

in_o those_o day_n there_o be_v daughter_n that_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n and_o do_v prophesy_v and_o also_o we_o read_v act_n 18._o 26._o that_o not_o only_a aquila_n but_o also_o

4._o 3._o that_o there_o be_v woman_n which_o labour_v with_o paul_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o so_o you_o may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v women-labourer_n in_o the_o gospel_n as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o yet_o we_o read_v not_o that_o paul_n reject_v their_o labour_n because_o they_o be_v woman_n and_o so_o you_o see_v there_o be_v women-prophetesses_a women-expounder_n and_o women-labourer_n and_o yet_o not_o reject_v nor_o reprove_v by_o any_o of_o the_o apostle_n that_o i_o read_v of_o and_o paul_n desire_v titus_n to_o speak_v the_o thing_n which_o become_v sound_a doctrine_n that_o

proper_a comely_a and_o effectual_a in_o a_o meeting_n apart_o from_o the_o man_n but_o it_o clear_o may_v be_v see_v that_o god_n allow_v woman_n to_o labour_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o teach_v good_a thing_n and_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o the_o woman_n as_o well_o as_o the_o man_n and_o they_o be_v to_o meet_v often_o together_o and_o to_o speak_v
