a_o sure_a confidence_n to_o obtain_v pardon_n by_o christ_n neither_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v ignorant_a that_o these_o two_o thing_n do_v burgeon_v out_o of_o faith_n as_o out_o of_o their_o proper_a

there_o set_v forth_o and_o confess_v they_o to_o be_v true_a whereby_o we_o be_v assure_v of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o we_o understande_v to_o be_v by_o our_o sin_n violate_v and_o nothing_o
