thou_o be_v to_o weigh_v and_o ponder_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o the_o matter_n in_o this_o book_n do_v lie_v out_o of_o sight_n to_o the_o carnal_a eye_n and_o the_o matter_n can_v be_v

thou_o thou_o can_v understand_v the_o matter_n in_o the_o word_n though_o thou_o may_v read_v they_o over_o and_o over_o for_o whosoever_o will_v come_v to_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n they_o must_v come_v to_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o spirit_n themselves_o or_o otherwise_o they_o may_v read_v but_o reap_v no_o profit_n and_o so_o the_o scripture_n have_v be_v read_v and_o hear_v
