from_o all_o that_o be_v ill_a from_o sin_n but_o from_o that_o that_o follow_v it_o there_o be_v some_o ill_n that_o follow_v as_o fear_v and_o terror_n of_o conscience_n etc._n etc._n they_o follow_v sin_n and_o death_n and_o wrath_n and_o such_o like_a the_o subjection_n to_o these_o now_o where_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v it_o free_v from_o the_o ill_a consequent_n from_o the_o

a_o freedom_n from_o ill_a from_o a_o curse_a condition_n and_o likewise_o a_o liberty_n to_o a_o better_a a_o liberty_n from_o ill_a and_o to_o good_a we_o must_v take_v it_o in_o the_o just_a

be_v free_v from_o the_o rigour_n and_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n so_o we_o have_v prerogative_n to_o good_a answerable_a we_o be_v now_o by_o the_o spirit_n set_v at_o liberty_n to_o delight_v in_o the_o law_n to_o make_v the_o law_n our_o counsellor_n to_o make_v the_o word_n of_o god_n our_o counsellor_n that_o that_o terrify_a and_o affright_v we_o before_o now_o it_o be_v our_o direction_n christ._n even_o as_o he_o that_o be_v a_o severe_a schoolmaster_n to_o one_o in_o he_o under_o year_n after_o when_o he_o come_v to_o year_n become_v a_o wise_a tutor_n to_o guide_v and_o direct_v

that_o that_o be_v ill_a and_o the_o consequent_n of_o ill_a there_o be_v a_o bless_a immunity_n and_o prerogative_n and_o privilege_n that_o be_v mean_v here_o by_o liberty_n for_o god_n work_n be_v
