cause_v one_o to_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o woman_n seed_n which_o shall_v subdue_v the_o devil_n and_o the_o devil_n shall_v do_v his_o indever_n to_o trip_v up_o his_o heel_n by_o tempt_v he_o all_o

of_o nothing_o multiply_v so_o infinite_o as_o to_o satisfy_v for_o a_o infinite_a offence_n let_v man_n offer_v himself_o what_o offer_v he_o but_o unthankfulness_n and_o disobedience_n blasphemy_n

sure_o let_v we_o say_v therefore_o that_o god_n himself_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o step_v in_o between_o his_o justice_n and_o his_o mercy_n and_o as_o he_o create_v we_o at_o the_o first_o so_o to_o

so_o to_o employ_v the_o same_o now_o again_o in_o repair_v we_o and_o sooth_o so_o much_o the_o more_o if_o more_o may_v be_v because_o that_o in_o our_o creation_n nothing_o resist_v the_o

both_o to_o discharge_v the_o bond_n and_o to_o assuage_v the_o infinite_a punishment_n here_o let_v we_o bethink_v we_o again_o what_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o in_o the_o five_o and_o six_o chapter_n i_o have_v declare_v there_o both_o by_o reason_n and_o by_o record_n of_o all_o antiquity_n that_o in_o god_n there_o be_v three_o person_n or_o inbeing_n in_o unity_n of_o one_o essence_n and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v coeternall_a and_o coequal_a in_o all_o respect_n the_o father_n as_o the_o ground_n and_o wellspring_n the_o son_n as_o the_o everlasting_a word_n and_o wisdom_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o the_o bond_n of_o kyndnesse_n and_o love_n whereby_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n be_v link_v together_o and_o i_o pray_v the_o reader_n that_o for_o the_o refresh_n of_o his_o memory_n he_o will_v vouchsafe_v to_o read_v over_o those_o chapter_n again_o upon_o this_o point_n needs_o than_o i_o assure_v you_o must_v one_o of_o those_o three_o person_n step_v in_o betwixt_o god_n wrath_n and_o our_o infinite_a fault_n and_o since_o it_o be_v so_o which_o of_o they_o shall_v rather_o do_v it_o than_o the_o wisdom_n consider_v that_o the_o case_n stand_v upon_o the_o new_a create_v of_o we_o again_o and_o that_o we_o be_v create_v by_o the_o same_o at_o the_o first_o or_o than_o the_o son_n see_v we_o be_v to_o be_v adopt_v that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o be_v admit_v to_o a_o inheritance_n nay_o moreover_o it_o behove_v this_o mediator_n to_o step_v in_o for_o ever_o for_o inasmuch_o as_o the_o world_n be_v create_v for_o man_n and_o man_n be_v fall_v away_o from_o god_n neither_o the_o world_n nor_o man_n now_o after_o his_o fall_n can_v have_v abide_v before_o god_n one_o moment_n of_o a_o hour_n behold_v in_o the_o manner_n of_o this_o mediation_n there_o be_v again_o another_o incomprehensible_a mystery_n howbeit_o such_o a_o one_o as_o when_o it_o be_v once_o reveal_v unto_o we_o we_o deem_v it_o unpossible_a to_o

by_o infinite_a punishment_n or_o by_o a_o infinite_a reparation_n and_o this_o infinite_a reparation_n can_v not_o proceed_v but_o from_o he_o that_o be_v infinite_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n from_o god_n himself_o it_o behove_v then_o that_o our_o mediator_n be_v god_n and_o of_o his_o gracious_a goodness_n such_o a_o one_o have_v we_o but_o this_o infinite_a godhead_n be_v not_o to_o

neither_o again_o be_v he_o to_o purchase_v we_o grace_n but_o by_o punishment_n or_o life_n but_o by_o death_n and_o to_o the_o intent_n he_o may_v obey_v he_o must_v abase_v himself_o to_o deserve_v he_o must_v serve_v to_o become_v lowly_a he_o must_v stoop_v down_o beneath_o himself_o to_o suffer_v he_o must_v become_v weak_a and_o to_o die_v he_o must_v become_v mortal_a certesse_n we_o say_v therefore_o that_o it_o be_v convenient_a and_o behooveful_a that_o our_o mediator_n shall_v be_v both_o god_n and_o man._n man_n to_o be_v bear_v under_o the_o law_n god_n to_o perform_v the_o law_n

the_o office_n &_o dignity_n of_o the_o mediator_n corruption_n it_o be_v necessary_a for_o our_o welfare_n say_v i_o that_o the_o mediator_n shall_v be_v man_n to_o bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o

of_o our_o flesh_n &_o bone_n of_o our_o bone_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o as_o in_o adam_n we_o be_v all_o become_v bondseruamt_n to_o sin_n so_o in_o he_o we_o may_v be_v deliver_v and_o set_v
