be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o work_n but_o all_o be_v ascribe_v to_o christ_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n also_o write_v so_o careful_o and_o so_o wary_o as_o if_o he_o fear_v nothing_o more_o then_o that_o man_n shall_v rest_v any_o thing_n upon_o his_o merit_n to_o conclude_v therefore_o this_o my_o first_o argument_n i_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n if_o it_o be_v of_o grace_n it_o be_v no_o

of_o god_n wrath_n saint_n paul_n then_o conclude_v out_o of_o that_o he_o have_v teach_v of_o justification_n by_o faith_n that_o our_o rejoice_v be_v thereby_o take_v away_o teach_v we_o thus_o

that_o rejoice_a be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n see_v they_o still_o rejoice_v and_o content_v themselves_o in_o their_o work_n but_o i_o will_v end_v this_o with_o one_o short_a
