the_o death_n of_o pharaoh_n but_o of_o wicked_a pharaoh_n but_o say_v i_o pharaoh_n do_v always_o continue_v wicked_a pharaoh_n from_o his_o birth_n to_o his_o death_n never_o alter_v from_o

that_o pharaoh_n as_o wicked_a be_v not_o the_o object_n of_o god_n decree_n of_o condemnation_n but_o as_o have_v fill_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o iniquity_n but_o i_o say_v again_o from_o the_o first_o time_n that_o he_o thus_o become_v the_o object_n of_o god_n decree_n of_o condemnation_n he_o still_o continue_v the_o same_o for_o yourself_o confess_v after_o once_o they_o have_v fill_v up_o a_o certain_a measure_n of_o iniquity_n all_o possibility_n of_o repentance_n be_v take_v from_o they_o the_o last_o refuge_n for_o you_o be_v to_o say_v that_o this_o speech_n of_o you_o in_o deny_v pharaoh_n to_o continue_v the_o same_o object_n of_o god_n decree_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v not_o in_o respect_n of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o decree_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o

fill_v the_o measure_n of_o his_o iniquity_n he_o be_v the_o object_n of_o god_n decree_n to_o save_v he_o for_o in_o the_o consequence_n you_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n do_v unfeigned_o love_v all_o

from_o the_o state_n of_o the_o elect_a to_o the_o state_n of_o reprobate_n and_o immediate_o before_o you_o profess_v that_o god_n from_o all_o eternity_n do_v not_o will_v the_o death_n but_o rather_o the_o life_n of_o pharaoh_n this_o you_o may_v have_v express_v in_o plain_a term_n without_o falter_v but_o you_o be_v loath_a as_o it_o seem_v to_o alienate_v man_n mind_n with_o so_o

still_o i_o perceive_v your_o meaning_n reach_v further_a than_o you_o dare_v as_o yet_o to_o profess_v for_o your_o meaning_n be_v to_o prove_v that_o all_o that_o hear_v the_o gospel_n and_o do_v
