which_o be_v speak_v to_o we_o by_o the_o lord_n as_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v great_a than_o a_o create_a spirit_n so_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n give_v by_o he_o be_v a_o great_a

it_o be_v the_o great_a neglect_n of_o god_n himself_o it_o be_v a_o mean_n of_o convey_v grace_n and_o life_n to_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v strengthen_v and_o refresh_v by_o the_o body_n and_o

which_o be_v kneel_v against_o which_o they_o plead_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o that_o posture_n which_o the_o disciple_n receive_v it_o in_o to_o which_o we_o answer_v that_o no_o

gesture_n though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o posture_n of_o body_n which_o be_v near_o to_o they_o than_o the_o church_n of_o england_n go_v we_o argue_v 1._o that_o no_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v
