the_o denial_n of_o christ_n he_o add_v as_o always_o that_o by_o the_o experiment_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n already_o past_a they_o may_v confirm_v their_o faith_n so_o in_o the_o rom._n 5.4_o

that_o paul_n now_o say_v i_o desire_v to_o die_v because_o by_o this_o mean_v i_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v join_v with_o christ_n yet_o the_o faithful_a cease_v not_o to_o be_v afraid_a of_o death_n but_o when_o they_o turn_v their_o eye_n unto_o that_o life_n that_o follow_v after_o death_n by_o this_o consolation_n they_o easy_o overcome_v that_o fear_n true_o whosoever_o beléeve_v in_o

not_o only_o wax_v fearful_a but_o become_v almost_o dead_a o_o a_o good_a conscience_n how_o much_o do_v thou_o excel_v and_o how_o much_o do_v thou_o prevail_v but_o faith_n be_v the_o foundation_n
