what_o feast_n there_o be_v when_o christ_n be_v baptise_v of_o john_n and_o i_o think_v we_o shall_v find_v none_o at_o all_o then_o let_v we_o see_v what_o christ_n have_v at_o his_o feast_n with_o

to_o all_o people_n on_o earth_n in_o all_o his_o action_n and_o doctrine_n make_v a_o innocent_a feast_n for_o the_o people_n with_o barley_n loaf_n and_o fish_n mat._n 14._o but_o some_o will_v

again_o he_o often_o go_v to_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o to_o a_o wedding_n to_o show_v forth_o the_o power_n of_o his_o father_n in_o turn_v water_n into_o wine_n but_o we_o never_o find_v

the_o law_n of_o the_o father_n in_o his_o flesh_n even_o for_o a_o disobedient_a people_n which_o the_o lord_n by_o moses_n bring_v out_o of_o egypt_n from_o their_o fleshpot_n into_o the_o

in_o these_o our_o day_n will_v deny_v the_o scripture_n wherein_o christ_n command_v the_o rich_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n to_o sell_v his_o good_n and_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a but_o they_o will_v

than_o ourselves_o so_o it_o seem_v by_o this_o that_o they_o have_v rather_o deny_v this_o scripture_n and_o many_o more_o that_o speak_v to_o this_o purpose_n even_o christ_n and_o all_o rather_o than_o to_o part_v from_o their_o riches_n this_o will_v have_v be_v my_o condition_n in_o ignorance_n therefore_o let_v not_o the_o rich_a man_n mistake_v i_o and_o think_v that_o i_o will_v have_v

for_o if_o any_o man_n see_v thou_o which_o have_v knowledge_n fit_a at_o table_n in_o the_o idol_n temple_n shall_v not_o the_o conscience_n of_o he_o which_o be_v weak_a be_v bolden_v to_o eat_v
