that_o i_o may_v speak_v more_o right_o thou_o rather_o be_v retain_v &_o conserve_v by_o he_o these_o thing_n brentius_n who_o may_v not_o here_o perceive_v the_o scope_n of_o brentiu●_n to_o have_v

that_o as_o sin_n reign_v in_o death_n so_o also_o grace_n may_v re●gne_v by_o righteousness_n to_o life_n eternal_a by_o jesus_n christ_n what_o then_o shall_v we_o sin_v because_o sin_n can_v take_v

john_n say_v he_o that_o say_v i_o know_v he_o and_o do_v not_o keep_v his_o commandment_n be_v a_o liar_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o he_o again_o if_o any_o shall_v say_v i_o love_v god_n

neither_o do_v repose_v their_o confidence_n either_o to_o tall_a or_o in_o part_n in_o their_o own_o merit_n but_o full_o and_o entire_o in_o sole_a christ_n alone_o neither_o yet_o either_o lead_v a_o wicked_a life_n or_o give_v over_o themselves_o captive_n to_o sin_n but_o rather_o study_v for_o sanctity_n of_o life_n and_o resist_v sin_n and_o although_o while_o they_o walk_v aright_o they_o do_v slip_v and_o offend_v sometime_o yet_o never_o do_v they_o either_o love_n sin_n or_o commit_v sin_n with_o a_o full_a consent_n of_o will_n or_o persevere_v in_o sin_n therefore_o he_o either_o
