A13556	Regula vitæ the rule of the law vnder the Gospel. Containing a discovery of the pestiferous sect of libertines, antinomians, and sonnes of Belial, lately sprung up both to destroy the law, and disturbe the faith of the Gospell: wherein is manifestly proved, that God seeth sinne in iustified persons.

the_o spirit_n all_o our_o work_n be_v do_v to_o our_o hand_n and_o we_o have_v nothing_o leave_v for_o we_o to_o do_v and_o therefore_o the_o law_n to_o we_o be_v as_o the_o seven_o green_a cord_n

the_o same_o sin_n be_v forbid_v they_o after_o faith_n as_o before_o and_o therefore_o the_o law_n be_v in_o some_o force_n to_o they_o the_o proposition_n be_v clear_a because_o the_o law_n only_o
