christian_n by_o what_o mean_v a_o christian_a man_n be_v free_a from_o all_o and_o lord_n over_o all_o so_o that_o to_o become_v just_a and_o save_v he_o shall_v not_o need_v any_o work_n at_o all_o

christian_a by_o force_n of_o any_o good_a work_n he_o shall_v sure_o lose_v his_o faith_n forthwith_o together_o with_o all_o his_o good_a work_n which_o folly_n be_v apt_o moralize_v in_o that_o fable_n of_o aesop_n where_o the_o dog_n swim_v in_o the_o water_n &_o carry_v flesh_n in_o his_o mouth_n delude_v with_o the_o shadow_n of_o the_o same_o flesh_n glitter_v in_o the_o water_n while_o

and_o to_o be_v displeasant_a against_o the_o jew_n and_o such_o other_o childish_a and_o fond_a matter_n of_o no_o great_a importance_n but_o christ_n ought_v to_o be_v preach_v to_o this_o end_n

to_o ascribe_v unto_o god_n justice_n &_o truth_n &_o to_o confess_v the_o same_o be_v to_o be_v true_a and_o just_a 5._o to_o this_o effect_n we_o read_v in_o the_o 1_o of_o the_o king_n the_o 5_o
