wherefore_o the_o sermon_n of_o daniel_n ought_v not_o only_o to_o be_v apply_v to_o almose_n deade_v but_o faith_n also_o be_v to_o be_v require_v in_o it_o the_o sermon_n of_o daniel_n be_v far_o

which_o can_v save_v in_o this_o wise_n so_o then_o there_o be_v two_o part_n of_o the_o sermon_n of_o daniel_n the_o one_o part_n be_v the_o preach_n of_o repentance_n which_o rebuke_v sin_n and_o

therefore_o nat_n regard_n hierome_n in_o this_o place_n now_o for_o asmuch_o as_o here_o be_v a_o promise_n evident_o put_v doubtless_o faith_n be_v require_v for_o a_o ê“myse_n can_v not_o be_v

a_o very_a prophetical_a and_o a_o evangelical_a sentence_n which_o doubtless_o daniel_n will_v to_o be_v receyve_v by_o faith_n for_o daniel_n know_v that_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v promise_v
