of_o the_o same_o that_o be_v he_o have_v cancel_v the_o law_n which_o be_v in_o evil_a man_n the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n therefore_o sin_n have_v no_o power_n against_o they_o that_o be_v with_o

immoderate_a affection_n but_o he_o have_v leave_v they_o for_o the_o great_a glory_n of_o his_o father_n and_o for_o his_o own_o great_a triumph_n as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o prince_n fight_v with_o his_o enemy_n which_o sometime_o have_v the_o sovereignty_n over_o his_o people_n and_o subdue_a they_o may_v kill_v they_o if_o he_o will_v yet_o he_o preserve_v and_o save_v they_o and_o whereas_o they_o be_v lord_n over_o his_o people_n he_o make_v they_o after_o to_o serve_v who_o they_o before_o have_v rule_v now_o in_o such_o a_o case_n the_o prince_n do_v show_v himself_o a_o

to_o the_o exercise_n of_o our_o virtue_n where_o first_o they_o do_v reign_v over_o we_o to_o the_o exercise_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o it_o may_v be_v plain_o see_v that_o whereas_o first_o they_o

so_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o triumph_n victory_n and_o glory_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o great_a have_v in_o such_o sort_n subdue_v the_o devil_n that_o whereas_o he_o be_v prince_n and_o

elect_a of_o god_n in_o christian_a warfare_n christ_n likewise_o have_v overcome_v death_n in_o a_o more_o glorious_a manner_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a because_o he_o have_v not_o take_v it_o away_o but_o leave_v universallie_o all_o subject_n to_o the_o same_o he_o have_v give_v so_o much_o virtue_n and_o spirit_n that_o whereas_o afore_o we_o pass_v thereto_o with_o great_a fear_n now_o we_o
