notwithstanding_o it_o can_v be_v gather_v from_o hence_o that_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o liberty_n to_o frame_v our_o heart_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n be_v in_o our_o power_n for_o it_o

it_o be_v needful_a for_o two_o cause_n that_o the_o disobedience_n of_o their_o father_n shall_v be_v remember_v unto_o they_o for_o as_o they_o be_v fond_o puff_v up_o with_o the_o dignity_n of_o their_o race_n so_o often_o time_n they_o follow_v their_o father_n vice_n in_o stead_n of_o virtue_n and_o take_v their_o example_n for_o a_o sufficient_a excuse_n moreover_o hear_v that_o their_o father_n have_v be_v so_o disobedient_a to_o god_n they_o may_v the_o better_o know_v hereby_o that_o this_o admonition_n be_v not_o superfluous_a now_o because_o these_o two_o reason_n have_v place_n

they_o also_o to_o who_o he_o address_v his_o speech_n may_v not_o be_v give_v too_o much_o to_o the_o follow_v of_o their_o father_n step_n from_o hence_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o general_a doctrine_n to_o wit_n how_o far_o we_o ought_v to_o follow_v our_o father_n that_o be_v to_o say_v even_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o their_o authority_n do_v not_o turn_v we_o from_o the_o only_a one_o god_n for_o
