while_n they_o neglect_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n from_o whence_o they_o come_v now_o this_o aught_o chief_o to_o be_v respect_v in_o our_o sorrow_n for_o although_o we_o howl_v with_o a_o blind_a

thereat_o he_o add_v that_o they_o harden_v their_o face_n like_o a_o stone_n in_o a_o word_n that_o they_o will_v not_o return_v the_o prophet_n signify_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v not_o only_o
