for_o perhaps_o the_o will_n in_o who_o power_n it_o be_v to_o receive_v or_o reject_v grace_n may_v make_v it_o void_a the_o same_o be_v evident_a from_o john_n 6._o 45._o whosoever_o have_v hear_v

although_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v the_o principle_n by_o which_o yet_o the_o will_n of_o man_n be_v the_o principle_n which_o work_v all_o in_o like_a manner_n although_o god_n be_v the_o
