in_o the_o spirit_n and_o as_o he_o manifest_v every_o spirit_n with_o its_o working_n motion_n and_o end_n their_o ground_n and_o offspring_n whence_o they_o come_v and_o whither_o they_o return_v that_o thereby_o the_o creature_n may_v know_v who_o it_o be_v that_o exercise_n his_o mind_n and_o member_n and_o to_o what_o spirit_n he_o yield_v himself_o in_o his_o obedience_n and_o service_n and_o so_o may_v come_v to_o know_v the_o use_n and_o end_n of_o all_o his_o work_n what_o to_o choose_v and_o what_o to_o refuse_v what_o to_o justify_v and_o what_o condemn_v in_o its_o first_o

for_o want_v of_o faith_n and_o feel_n of_o this_o way_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v that_o so_o many_o perish_v in_o sin_n and_o yet_o seem_v to_o strive_v against_o sin_n even_o because_o they_o can_v believe_v that_o to_o be_v sufficient_a to_o save_v from_o sin_n which_o manifest_v sin_n in_o the_o ground_n and_o condemn_v it_o in_o its_o first_o motion_n which_o if_o they_o do_v but_o in_o

prevail_v and_o if_o it_o for_o a_o time_n shall_v live_v in_o the_o member_n yet_o not_o to_o condemnation_n for_o i_o have_v find_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o sin_n condemn_v in_o the_o
