be_v make_v priest_n of_o god_n but_o by_o the_o late_a bishop_n who_o themselves_o be_v former_o make_v by_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n as_o i_o shall_v make_v appear_v towards_o the_o late_a end_n of_o this_o treatise_n by_o the_o law_n and_o statute_n of_o this_o nation_n and_o again_o i_o find_v that_o the_o priest_n the_o levite_n and_o all_o the_o tribe_n of_o levi_n have_v no_o part_n of_o inheritance_n with_o israel_n and_o therefore_o be_v they_o appoint_v to_o eat_v the_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v by_o fire_n because_o they_o have_v no_o inheritance_n among_o their_o

their_o inheritance_n as_o he_o have_v say_v unto_o they_o josh._n 19_o 3_o etc._n etc._n and_o again_o it_o do_v and_o may_v appear_v that_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n do_v appoint_v storehouse_n unto_o which_o the_o people_n be_v express_o command_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n for_o to_o bring_v their_o tithe_n that_o thither_o the_o widow_n the_o fatherless_a and_o stranger_n may_v also_o come_v within_o the_o gate_n of_o the_o priest_n to_o be_v fill_v by_o which_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o widow_n fatherless_a and_o stranger_n have_v as_o much_o right_n to_o the_o tithe_n as_o the_o priest_n through_o which_o relief_n there_o be_v not_o a_o beggar_n in_o israel_n neither_o be_v they_o the_o priest_n and_o levite_n permit_v to_o persecute_v

yet_o live_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o such_o abominable_a thing_n and_o do_v also_o justify_v such_o as_o with_o they_o do_v the_o same_o as_o never_o be_v commit_v nor_o do_v in_o the_o time_n of_o
