he_o forgive_v all_o his_o sin_n and_o heal_v all_o his_o infirmity_n by_o temporal_a benefit_n the_o weakness_n of_o our_o nature_n be_v teach_v to_o rise_v up_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o spiritual_a blessing_n and_o if_o we_o be_v not_o wilful_o blind_a we_o may_v easy_o and_o plain_o conceive_v that_o if_o corporal_a gift_n be_v to_o be_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v the_o free_a blessing_n of_o god_n as_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o pray_v give_v we_o our_o daily_a bread_n then_o much_o more_o must_v we_o confess_v all_o spiritual_a benefit_n to_o be_v the_o free_a gift_n of_o

the_o ransome_v of_o the_o soul_n if_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o praise_n god_n for_o deliverance_n appertain_v to_o the_o body_n then_o by_o good_a reason_n as_o much_o as_o the_o soul_n be_v more_o
