speak_v either_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o allegorical_a and_o figurative_a expression_n as_o the_o vision_n of_o ezekiel_n daniel_n zechary_n etc._n etc._n or_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o obscure_a and_o strange_a connexion_n of_o one_o part_n with_o another_o or_o of_o the_o dependence_n thereof_o upon_o foreign_a learning_n or_o the_o like_a but_o then_o we_o must_v note_v that_o the_o

the_o son_n of_o a_o virgin_n or_o that_o he_o die_v and_o rise_v again_o there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n in_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o thing_n it_o be_v easy_o understand_v what_o he_o that_o affirm_v they_o do_v mean_a by_o they_o all_o the_o difficulty_n be_v to_o bring_v the_o mind_n to_o give_v assent_n unto_o they_o three_o some_o thing_n though_o easy_a in_o their_o sense_n to_o be_v understand_v and_o it_o may_v be_v easy_a likewise_o in_o their_o nature_n to_o be_v believe_v be_v yet_o hard_a to_o be_v obey_v and_o practise_v as_o repentance_n and_o forsake_v of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n now_o according_a unto_o these_o difference_n we_o may_v conceive_v of_o the_o office_n and_o power_n which_o the_o church_n have_v in_o matter_n of_o holy_a scripture_n first_o for_o hard_a place_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o place_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o church_n to_o open_v they_o to_o god_n people_n with_o modesty_n and_o moderation_n and_o 19_o therein_o god_n allow_v the_o learned_a a_o christian_a liberty_n with_o submission_n of_o their_o opinion_n always_o to_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o prophet_n so_o long_o as_o they_o do_v

further_o than_o this_o no_o church_n nor_o person_n can_v go_v for_o if_o unto_o any_o man_n or_o chair_n there_o be_v annex_v a_o infallible_a spirit_n enable_v he_o to_o give_v such_o a_o clear_a
