command_v in_o it_o which_o the_o apostle_n take_v to_o be_v impossible_a and_o thereupon_o be_v bold_a to_o affirm_v all_o man_n to_o lie_v under_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n for_o not_o have_v continue_v in_o all_o the_o duty_n thereof_o but_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n acquit_v they_o of_o that_o curse_n affirm_v plain_o that_o a_o man_n may_v keep_v the_o law_n and_o continue_v in_o all_o the_o duty_n thereof_o for_o want_v whereof_o and_o for_o no_o other_o cause_n the_o apostle_n do_v lay_v the_o curse_n upon_o every_o man_n it_o may_v not_o be_v omit_v that_o there_o be_v such_o
