say_v that_o there_o dwell_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o country_n there_o dwell_v god_n himself_o last_o but_o it_o be_v too_o tedious_a i_o may_v add_v how_o abundant_o the_o scripture_n show_v the_o same_o as_o also_o the_o event_n of_o thing_n contrary_a to_o reason_n miracle_n prophecying_n continual_a mercy_n of_o fruitful_a season_n etc._n etc._n which_o paul_n mention_v punishment_n in_o

that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n then_o of_o necessity_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o he_o be_v king_n of_o king_n and_o that_o as_o subordinate_a temporary_a prince_n have_v law_n and_o statute_n whereby_o they_o rule_v their_o state_n so_o must_v needs_o the_o supreme_a lord_n of_o all_o much_o more_o have_v law_n and_o statute_n whereby_o to_o govern_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o these_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n scholar_n persuasion_n be_v no_o proof_n therefore_o show_v unto_o i_o how_o i_o may_v rest_v assure_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o word_n of_o
