that_o we_o understand_v to_o be_v public_a enough_o and_o be_v so_o their_o doctrine_n as_o what_o the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n teach_v their_o disciple_n though_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o the_o jew_n have_v not_o pass_v it_o into_o a_o law_n so_o this_o be_v the_o roman_a doctrine_n though_o not_o the_o roman_a law_n which_o difference_n we_o desire_v may_v be_v observe_v in_o many_o of_o the_o follow_a instance_n that_o this_o objection_n may_v no_o more_o interpose_v for_o a_o escape_n or_o a_o excuse_n but_o we_o shall_v have_v occasion_n again_o to_o speak_v to_o it_o upon_o

which_o when_o it_o be_v genuine_a and_o true_a that_o be_v a_o true_a cordial_a sorrow_n for_o have_v sin_v against_o god_n a_o sorrow_n proceed_v from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o conversion_n

the_o greek_a father_n and_o the_o latin_a have_v allow_v as_o sufficient_a for_o the_o pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n through_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n as_o our_o writer_n have_v often_o prove_v

doctrine_n and_o its_o influence_n it_o have_v on_o a_o evil_a life_n appear_v in_o the_o other_o correspond_v part_n of_o this_o doctrine_n for_o as_o contrition_n without_o their_o ritual_a and_o

another_o and_o this_o at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o long_a wicked_a life_n at_o the_o time_n of_o our_o death_n will_v make_v all_o sure_a upon_o these_o term_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o all_o
