the_o eternity_n of_o the_o godhead_n of_o christ._n answ._n certain_o it_o be_v most_o pertinent_a to_o our_o lord_n design_n that_o we_o shall_v worship_v the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n

dangerous_a but_o diabolical_o impious_a and_o pernicious_a but_o nothing_o can_v more_o require_v the_o great_a ardency_n of_o our_o most_o zealous_a endeavour_n than_o to_o suppress_v the_o

brightness_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n of_o light_n it_o be_v fruitless_a to_o the_o contemplator_n own_o purpose_n to_o consider_v that_o he_o who_o he_o believe_v to_o be_v his_o
