wherefore_o this_o article_n of_o the_o divine_a substance_n and_o of_o the_o three_o person_n must_v be_v learned_a and_o exercise_v in_o daily_a prayer_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o sincere_a

i_o say_v the_o people_n must_v be_v call_v back_o from_o such_o ydolotrye_n unto_o the_o true_a and_o religiouse_a invocation_n of_o god_n as_o to_o a_o most_o godly_a work_n and_o principal_a

in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v to_o say_v with_o a_o sure_a and_o lyvely_a faith_n in_o this_o knowledge_n the_o chief_a point_n be_v to_o know_v that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o make_v all_o thing_n and_o preserve_v and_o govern_v the_o same_o alone_a wherefore_o the_o preacher_n shall_v study_n to_o declare_v to_o the_o people_n with_o singular_a diligence_n and_o to_o beat_v into_o their_o head_n those_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n that_o teach_v and_o testify_v of_o the_o eternal_a substance_n of_o god_n of_o his_o power_n knowledge_n goodness_n and_o severity_n for_o without_o this_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n we_o can_v never_o true_o and_o effectuous_o feel_v our_o sin_n much_o less_o repent_v and_o amend_v ourselves_o neither_o shall_v the_o law_n alone_o

and_o judge_v all_o man_n and_o large_o reward_v they_o that_o love_v he_o very_o many_o boast_v themselves_o to_o know_v god_n but_o in_o that_o that_o they_o studi_fw-la not_o to_o frame_v their_o
