and_o bring_v forth_o a_o son_n who_o name_n shall_v be_v emanuel_n that_o be_v god_n among_o us._n and_o hereunto_o witness_v all_o the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n even_o from_o the_o first_o

speak_v thus_o plain_o of_o christ_n and_o declare_v his_o come_n christ_n say_v scrutamini_fw-la scripturas_fw-la 5._o illae_fw-la enim_fw-la testimonium_fw-la perhibent_fw-la de_fw-la i_o search_v

you_o will_v also_o believe_v i_o and_o thus_o all_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o scripture_n bare_a record_n of_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n the_o patriarch_n know_v long_o before_o that_o

and_o worship_v he_o he_o think_v he_o a_o god_n and_o no_o man._n and_o thus_o as_o you_o see_v sometime_o the_o people_n offend_v too_o much_o on_o that_o hand_n and_o give_v more_o honour_n and_o reverence_n unto_o god_n minister_n than_o god_n himself_o require_v or_o they_o look_v for_o sometime_o again_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n they_o give_v they_o no_o reverence_n they_o attribute_v no_o

first_o to_o preach_v and_o set_v abroad_o his_o father_n will_n and_o the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o people_n forthwith_o find_v fault_n with_o he_o he_o be_v say_v they_o but_o a_o

if_o the_o preacher_n be_v too_o much_o honour_v then_o be_v god_n dishonour_v if_o he_o be_v despise_v and_o nothing_o set_v by_o then_o be_v christ_n himself_o despise_v and_o not_o regard_v they_o that_o say_v christ_n be_v a_o carpenter_n son_n a_o man_n unlearned_a and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o never_o go_v to_o school_v they_o that_o say_v the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n be_v full_a of_o new_a wine_n speak_v not_o this_o of_o any_o private_a malice_n or_o hatred_n that_o they_o bear_v either_o unto_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n but_o only_o to_o bring_v god_n word_n to_o shame_n only_o to_o bring_v christ_n holy_a gospel_n out_o of_o credit_n with_o the_o people_n this_o be_v their_o intent_n and_o purpose_n and_o nothing_o else_o therefore_o saint_n paul_n in_o this_o place_n

of_o stout_a courage_n and_o learned_a in_o the_o law_n as_o man_n eloquent_a and_o excellent_o well_o see_v in_o science_n but_o as_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o steward_n of_o the_o
