sense_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o scripture_n be_v conceal_v from_o the_o protestant_n by_o the_o protestant_n like_a as_o the_o sun_n be_v hide_v from_o the_o earth_n by_o the_o earth_n

admit_v for_o the_o time_n that_o this_o translation_n be_v perfect_a according_a to_o the_o true_a original_n yet_o see_v it_o differ_v in_o diverse_a controversiall_a text_n and_o passage_n from_o all_o former_a english_a translation_n it_o therefore_o from_o hence_o follow_v that_o till_o now_o we_o here_o in_o england_n never_o enjoy_v the_o true_a and_o uncorrupted_a scripture_n in_o

often_o inconsequent_a and_o at_o the_o most_o but_o probable_a and_o not_o necessary_a it_o follow_v that_o though_o we_o shall_v grant_v to_o they_o their_o own_o exposition_n of_o such_o text_n
