and_o bless_v there_o to_o those_o parishioner_n from_o the_o mouth_n of_o their_o lawful_a minister_n let_v not_o therefore_o the_o sermon_n of_o a_o stranger_n who_o perchance_o make_v a_o feast_n of_o set_a purpose_n to_o entertain_v new_a guest_n be_v prefer_v before_o the_o pain_n of_o thy_o own_o minister_n who_o keep_v a_o constant_a house_n and_o a_o set_a table_n each_o lord_n day_n
