for_o that_o first_o transgression_n of_o god_n commandment_n yet_o thus_o much_o we_o know_v as_o certain_o as_o can_v be_v out_o of_o holy_a scripture_n that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o a_o

viii_o that_o concupiscence_n even_o in_o the_o regenerate_a be_v of_o it_o be_v own_o nature_n a_o sin_n and_o we_o have_v learn_v that_o concupiscence_n of_o its_o own_o nature_n be_v so_o far_o
