i_o to_o think_v that_o god_n will_v be_v so_o favourable_a to_o such_o a_o wretch_n to_o such_o a_o lump_n of_o sin_n as_o i_o be_o be_v it_o not_o that_o god_n the_o son_n have_v satisfy_v god_n the_o father_n god_n have_v satisfy_v god_n and_o the_o spirit_n certify_v my_o conscience_n so_o the_o spirit_n that_o search_v the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n that_o know_v wh●●_n love_n be_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o search_v the_o heart_n he_o search_v the_o heart_n of_o god_n and_o he_o search_v my_o spirit_n except_o the_o spirit_n shall_v tell_v i_o that_o god_n

heart_n in_o a_o gracious_a liberty_n of_o justification_n as_o well_o as_o that_o god_n the_o son_n have_v wrought_v it_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o man_n of_o great_a part_n without_o grace_n be_v full_a of_o terror_n and_o despair_n fear_n for_o the_o more_o part_n and_o wit_n a_o man_n have_v without_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n the_o more_o he_o dispute_v against_o himself_o and_o entangle_v himself_o with_o desperate_a thought_n but_o when_o the_o spirit_n be_v bring_v to_o speak_v peace_n to_o the_o soul_n in_o christ_n and_o make_v the_o soul_n to_o cast_v itself_o on_o he_o for_o salvation_n than_o god_n spirit_n be_v above_o the_o conscience_n though_o conscience_n be_v above_o all_o thing_n else_o yet_o god_n be_v above_o conscience_n and_o can_v still_o the_o
