that_o it_o need_v not_o be_v prove_v for_o it_o be_v frequent_o find_v in_o scripture_n the_o lord_n convert_v the_o lord_n give_v repentance_n that_o god_n circumcise_v and_o take_v away_o the_o

the_o similitude_n as_o no_o man_n can_v contribute_v any_o thing_n to_o his_o own_o generation_n or_o resurrection_n so_o neither_o to_o his_o spiritual_a regeneration_n or_o resurrection_n god_n i_o

i_o say_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o god_n shall_v be_v the_o cause_n for_o god_n alone_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o whole_a be_v wheresoever_o it_o be_v find_v yea_o all_o divine_n acknowledge_v that_o so_o far_o as_o sin_n itself_o be_v a_o be_v god_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o wherefore_o although_o the_o will_v be_v the_o secondary_a and_o subordinate_a efficient_a cause_n of_o

of_o god_n or_o not_o according_a to_o its_o liberty_n yet_o if_o this_o opinion_n stand_v how_o much_o more_o than_o be_v meet_v will_v be_v arrogate_v unto_o man_n and_o derogate_a from_o the_o
