do_v speak_v after_o a_o far_a other_o manner_n of_o it_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o book_n eccles_n worthy_a that_o all_o shall_v be_v much_o verse_v in_o it_o and_o that_o all_o and_o especial_o

only_o for_o the_o set_n down_o of_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a example_n of_o patience_n if_o luther_n do_v say_v thus_o which_o be_v more_o also_o than_o i_o can_v find_v answ_n though_o i_o be_o far_o from_o be_v of_o his_o mind_n for_o i_o suppose_v that_o if_o there_o have_v not_o indeed_o be_v such_o a_o man_n as_o job_n in_o the_o history_n of_o he_o be_v describe_v the_o prophet_n

five_o volume_n of_o his_o work_n have_v annotation_n upon_o the_o first_o seventeen_o chapter_n of_o st._n matthews_n gospel_n and_o that_o in_o his_o note_n upon_o the_o first_o chapter_n he_o

that_o it_o be_v contentious_a swell_a dry_a strawy_a and_o unworthy_a a_o apostolical_a spirit_n thus_o also_o divers_a other_o romanist_n have_v charge_v luther_n answ_n as_o campian_n duraeus_n

though_o afterward_o they_o be_v leave_v out_o i_o answer_v then_o it_o seem_v if_o there_o be_v any_o such_o word_n they_o be_v not_o approve_v duraeus_n confess_v 8._o that_o those_o word_n be_v

this_o favour_n yet_o how_o shall_v they_o do_v it_o at_o wittemberge_n where_o i_o suppose_v not_o the_o zwinglians_n but_o the_o lutheran_n do_v bear_v sway_n and_o will_v have_v the_o chief_a

st._n james_n his_o epistle_n as_o i_o confess_v 279._o i_o find_v he_o to_o speak_v elsewhere_o in_o his_o work_n yet_o not_o so_o base_o as_o his_o adversary_n of_o rome_n do_v charge_v he_o gerhard_n a_o great_a lutheran_n say_v that_o luther_n indeed_o in_o his_o preface_n to_o s._n james_n his_o epistle_n in_o the_o first_o edition_n of_o the_o german_a bible_n do_v say_v that_o this_o epistle_n be_v not_o of_o like_a worth_n with_o the_o epistle_n of_o paul_n and_o peter_n and_o that_o it_o be_v strawie_a if_o it_o be_v compare_v with_o those_o epistle_n but_o that_o he_o no_o where_o term_n it_o contentious_a swell_a dry_a nor_o yet_o simple_o but_o only_o comparative_o strawie_a and_o that_o after_o the_o year_n 1526._o in_o no_o edition_n of_o luther_n work_n it_o be_v so_o call_v but_o the_o contrary_a rather_o be_v to_o be_v find_v to_o wit_n that_o luther_n do_v commend_v this_o epistle_n though_o some_o of_o the_o ancient_n do_v reject_v it_o and_o account_v it_o good_a and_o profitable_a it_o seem_v then_o that_o luther_n himself_o do_v retract_v that_o which_o he_o have_v write_v concern_v the_o epistle_n of_o s._n james_n his_o censure_n of_o it_o
