heb._n 11._o whereon_o depend_v faith_n hope_n charity_n and_o all_o other_o christian_a virtue_n i_o say_v that_o faith_n according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o saint_n paul_n be_v a_o substance_n that_o be_v a_o certain_a substantial_a and_o sure_a possession_n of_o thing_n promise_v which_o be_v hope_v for_o and_o a_o evidence_n of_o thing_n invisible_a which_o can_v of_o we_o be_v

light_n of_o god_n and_o a_o certain_a trifle_n and_o frivolous_a opinion_n but_o it_o be_v a_o evident_a light_n a_o certainty_n and_o assurance_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o a_o clear_a shine_a which_o
