you_o can_v not_o but_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o truth_n i_o preach_v unto_o you_o in_o they_o indeed_o you_o think_v you_o have_v eternal_a life_n but_o while_o malice_n and_o pride_n thus_o

unanswerable_a evidence_n which_o be_v motive_n sufficient_a to_o work_v on_o infidel_n and_o will_v admit_v no_o rule_n nor_o judge_n but_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o decide_v the_o quarrel_n think_v as_o the_o jew_n do_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n in_o they_o but_o with_o that_o incredulous_a people_n likewise_o deceive_v themselves_o do_v observe_v the_o light_n of_o divine_a truth_n by_o draw_v as_o it_o be_v a_o vail_n of_o private_a and_o perverse_a interpretation_n over_o their_o eye_n to_o their_o eternal_a perdition_n i_o add_v moreover_o that_o have_v our_o bless_a
