but_o that_o of_o innocency_n to_o adam_n and_o that_o of_o moses_n to_o the_o jew_n and_o think_v it_o be_v a_o privilege_n to_o be_v lawless_a or_o that_o christ_n have_v no_o law_n and_o so_o there_o be_v no_o transgression_n xxxv_o they_o hold_v that_o christ_n be_v no_o lawmaker_n and_o so_o must_v infer_v that_o he_o be_v no_o king_n and_o have_v no_o law_n of_o his_o own_o to_o
