when_o we_o will_v search_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o these_o thing_n exact_o we_o must_v rather_o conceive_v of_o god_n as_o the_o lawgiver_n and_o governor_n of_o the_o world_n then_o as_o a_o

it_o be_v pay_v yet_o the_o debtor_n shall_v not_o be_v acquit_v so_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o suffering_n here_o we_o take_v payment_n and_o satisfaction_n in_o the_o strict_a legal_a sense_n and_o not_o in_o the_o large_a sense_n wherein_o they_o be_v confound_v and_o now_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o christ_n suffering_n be_v the_o payment_n of_o the_o very_a debt_n or_o of_o somewhat_o
