that_o which_o be_v good_a yea_o or_o nay_o if_o he_o do_v then_o know_v he_o what_o he_o do_v or_o do_v he_o do_v he_o know_v not_o what_o in_o it_o sure_o thy_o doctrine_n do_v strange_o

this_o will_v make_v much_o of_o his_o epistle_n to_o proceed_v from_o a_o unregenerate_a or_o carnal_a part_n which_o be_v gross_a and_o contrary_a to_o their_o own_o doctrine_n and_o to_o that_o
