such_o life_n as_o the_o prophet_n foretold_v shall_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o messiah_n government_n and_o as_o christ_n own_o doctrine_n and_o undertake_n give_v the_o world_n ground_n to_o expect_v what_o shall_v i_o do_v say_v a_o poor_a doubt_v jew_n i_o see_v after_o so_o many_o age_n of_o vain_a which_o our_o doctor_n talk_v of_o and_o indeed_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n do_v so_o well_o

they_o persecute_v we_o indeed_o for_o blaspheme_v his_o name_n and_o yet_o they_o give_v we_o every_o day_n new_a cause_n to_o blaspheme_v he_o and_o not_o only_o think_v he_o a_o imposter_n because_o we_o see_v nothing_o come_v to_o pass_v which_o he_o promise_v no_o meekness_n no_o humility_n no_o patience_n no_o innocence_n and_o especial_o none_o of_o that_o love_n which_o he_o tell_v we_o shall_v be_v the_o badge_n and_o cognizance_n of_o his_o disciple_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a all_o the_o vice_n reign_v among_o the_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o jesus_n profess_v he_o come_v to_o extirpate_v and_o drive_v out_o of_o the_o world_n how_o can_v we_o choose_v but_o speak_v evil_a of_o his_o name_n when_o christian_n lie_v and_o cozen_v and_o swear_v false_o by_o it_o call_v his_o name_n over_o all_o their_o wickedness_n and_o lust_n slander_n backbite_v supplant_v rob_v and_o murder_v one_o another_o and_o all_o in_o christ_n name_n do_v all_o those_o thing_n for_o which_o no_o sacrifice_n will_v expiate_v with_o we_o and_o which_o heathen_a honesty_n abhor_v to_o hear_v of_o for_o christ_n sake_n and_o in_o zeal_n to_o his_o glory_n if_o christ_n teach_v these_o thing_n he_o deserve_v all_o the_o reproach_n and_o curse_n which_o any_o jew_n can_v lay_v upon_o he_o and_o if_o he_o do_v not_o where_o shall_v i_o be_v instruct_v in_o his_o doctrine_n for_o christian_n seem_v to_o think_v he_o do_v teach_v they_o furnish_v i_o i_o pray_v with_o some_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n in_o charity_n to_o this_o jew_n for_o your_o own_o credit_n
