reformation_n separation_n revelation_n or_o any_o thing_n that_o may_v manifest_v people_n to_o have_v a_o care_n of_o their_o soul_n but_o oh_o the_o misery_n the_o misery_n the_o unspeakable_a

he_o say_v that_o in_o all_o age_n god_n give_v to_o some_o few_o man_n more_o excellent_a natural_a part_n than_o other_o and_o he_o engage_v some_o in_o deep_a and_o more_o laborious_a study_n and_o he_o bless_v some_o man_n study_n more_o than_o other_o and_o therefore_o there_o be_v still_o some_o few_o who_o know_v more_o than_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o country_n or_o mankind_n and_o it_o be_v

say_v this_o baxter_n they_o be_v such_o as_o give_v proof_n of_o their_o knowledge_n they_o pretend_v to_o and_o they_o be_v such_o to_o employ_v their_o knowledge_n to_o the_o preserve_n of_o the_o

which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v it_o be_v still_o more_o and_o more_o manifest_a that_o this_o baxter_n lay_v all_o the_o weight_n and_o stress_n upon_o natural_a part_n and_o hard_a study_n as_o

for_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n lead_v we_o and_o all_o that_o obey_v it_o into_o all_o truth_n but_o this_o baxter_n and_o such_o as_o he_o lead_v be_v in_o all_o error_n as_o be_v manifest_a for_o they_o be_v of_o those_o that_o lead_v about_o a_o company_n of_o poor_a soul_n silly_a as_o woman_n leaden_a with_o divers_a sin_n and_o lust_n ever_o learning_n but_o never_o able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n which_o set_v free_a from_o sin_n for_o that_o and_o nothing_o else_o be_v the_o truth_n which_o set_v free_a from_o sin_n for_o say_v christ_n if_o you_o
