grievousness_n &_o greatness_n of_o this_o sin_n of_o bloodshed_n and_o partly_o to_o give_v the_o best_a counsel_n i_o can_v for_o the_o restraint_n of_o those_o conceit_n and_o error_n which_o

concern_v the_o sin_n of_o bloodshed_n i_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n constrain_v to_o reflect_v upon_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o make_v choice_n of_o those_o word_n and_o the_o land_n can_v be_v

the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n the_o land_n can_v be_v purge_v of_o blood_n but_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o he_o and_o his_o posterity_n that_o shed_v it_o saint_n peter_n tell_v we_o that_o some_o man_n

to_o express_v unto_o we_o the_o greatness_n of_o this_o sin_n i_o tell_v you_o be_v the_o difficulty_n of_o cleanse_v it_o intimate_v in_o those_o word_n can_v be_v cleanse_v but_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o he_o that_o shed_v it_o most_o of_o other_o sin_n have_v sundry_a way_n to_o wash_v the_o guilt_n away_o as_o in_o the_o levitical_a law_n the_o woman_n that_o be_v unclean_a by_o reason_n of_o
