the_o people_n be_v sting_v with_o fiery_a serpent_n and_o thereby_o mortal_o wound_v ii_o neither_o moses_n nor_o the_o law_n can_v cure_v the_o people_n that_o be_v sting_v with_o those_o fiery_a

though_o call_v a_o serpent_n it_o be_v without_o poison_n or_o sting_n it_o have_v the_o similitude_n of_o a_o serpent_n but_o have_v no_o venom_n vi_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n be_v not_o forge_v

and_o so_o may_v resemble_v the_o colour_n of_o the_o serpent_n it_o be_v also_o strong_a and_o durable_a be_v my_o strength_n say_v job_n the_o strength_n of_o stone_n or_o be_v my_o flesh_n of_o

upon_o their_o sore_n to_o and_o grievous_a wound_n and_o not_o the_o sign_n that_o be_v erect_v by_o god_n appointment_n die_v notwithstanding_o the_o serpent_n of_o brass_n x._o if_o they_o seek_v to_o chirurgean_n or_o physician_n or_o use_v any_o salve_n or_o medicine_n of_o their_o own_o or_o other_o yet_o they_o perish_v xi_o the_o brazen-serpent_n be_v a_o unlikely_a thing_n or_o way_n

that_o be_v like_o the_o sting_n of_o a_o serpent_n the_o poison_n of_o asp_n be_v under_o their_o tongue_n sin_n wound_v the_o soul_n my_o wound_n stink_v and_o be_v corrupt_a ii_o so_o neither_o

the_o similitude_n of_o of_o a_o sinful_a man_n but_o yet_o without_o sin_n vi_o so_o christ_n be_v not_o beget_v by_o man_n guild_n but_o conceive_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n vii_o so_o be_v christ_n send_v not_o with_o outward_a glory_n or_o worldly_a pompous_a show_n but_o mean_v and_o humble_a in_o outward_a appearance_n brass_n be_v strong_a etc._n

for_o their_o sin_n be_v like_a to_o perish_v for_o ever_o let_v the_o man_n that_o talk_v of_o the_o light_n within_o look_n to_o this_o xi_o so_o christ_n crucify_v be_v to_o the_o jew_n and_o
