if_o his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n we_o shall_v not_o expect_v to_o have_v the_o glory_n of_o our_o religion_n to_o be_v liable_a to_o outward_a observation_n but_o rather_o pray_v

end_n of_o christ_n come_n be_v to_o bear_v witness_n of_o the_o truth_n we_o may_v gather_v diverse_a thing_n from_o thence_o as_o first_o it_o may_v inform_v we_o of_o the_o entertainment_n truth_n

to_o receive_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n with_o all_o reverence_n and_o gladness_n and_o good_a conscience_n as_o account_v truth_n to_o be_v the_o most_o precious_a treasure_n god_n send_v to_o man_n
