answer_v if_o you_o follow_v the_o former_a definition_n of_o liberty_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v that_o in_o thing_n indifferent_a he_o have_v his_o liberty_n but_o in_o thing_n simple_o good_a and_o

we_o can_v ascribe_v that_o liberty_n of_o the_o will_n which_o be_v according_a to_o the_o image_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o god_n himself_o and_o be_v a_o near_a power_n or_o faculty_n and_o whereby_o without_o constraint_n he_o be_v carry_v to_o that_o only_a which_o be_v good_a we_o can_v i_o say_v true_o attribute_v this_o unto_o the_o unregenerate_a and_o his_o will_n for_o a_o faculty_n to_o evil_a can_v true_o be_v say_v a_o liberty_n but_o rather_o a_o certain_a servitude_n and_o in_o verity_n the_o unregenerate_a man_n will_n be_v not_o free_v but_o bind_v yet_o because_o the_o unregenerate_a do_v not_o will_n evil_a by_o constraint_n but_o of_o his_o own_o accord_n and_o mere_a motion_n in_o some_o sort_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o his_o will_n be_v free_a here_o our_o adversary_n dissent_n from_o we_o ascribe_v liberty_n of_o will_n to_o the_o man_n unregenerate_a whereby_o also_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a power_n he_o may_v will_v good_a where_o as_o
