glad_a lusty_a cheerful_a and_o true-harted_n unto_o god_n and_o unto_o all_o creature_n so_o that_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o separate_v good_a life_n and_o good_a work_n from_o this_o faith_n

2.4_o now_o it_o follow_v to_o bring_v some_o argument_n and_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n only_o and_o not_o by_o work_n the_o first_o be_v that_o whereby_o man_n

be_v justify_v these_o effect_n of_o justification_n be_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n attribute_v unto_o this_o only_a cause_n faith_n for_o what_o be_v more_o know_v than_o that_o say_n so_o god_n

5.1_o so_o then_o if_o man_n be_v justify_v by_o his_o faith_n that_o be_v by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o another_o to_o wit_n christ_n apprehend_v by_o faith_n then_o be_v he_o not_o justify_v by_o
