scripture_n gal._n 3._o 10._o which_o say_v for_o as_o many_o as_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n mark_v they_o that_o be_v of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n now_o

all_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v they_o second_o thou_o can_v not_o be_v save_v by_o the_o righteous_a law_n of_o god_n the_o first_o covenant_n because_o that_o together_o with_o this_o thy_o miserable_a state_n by_o original_n and_o actual_a sin_n before_o thou_o do_v follow_v the_o law_n since_o thy_o turn_n to_o the_o law_n thou_o have_v commit_v

notwithstanding_o all_o our_o obedience_n to_o the_o law_n we_o be_v yet_o through_o our_o weakness_n under_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o the_o law_n be_v so_o holy_a so_o just_a and_o so_o good_a that_o it_o can_v allow_v that_o any_o fail_v or_o slip_n shall_v be_v do_v by_o they_o that_o look_v for_o life_n by_o the_o same_o curse_a be_v every_o one_o that_o

first_o to_o show_v rather_o the_o end_n of_o the_o ceremony_n than_o the_o beginning_n or_o rise_v or_o the_o new_a covenant_n mind_v a_o little_a the_o apostle_n be_v labour_v to_o beat_v the_o

be_v rather_o to_o be_v mean_v a_o change_n of_o the_o administration_n a_o take_v away_o the_o type_n the_o shadow_n the_o ceremony_n from_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n and_o reveal_v
