his_o will_n indeed_o the_o great_a and_o only_a controversy_n between_o god_n and_o man_n be_v who_o will_n shall_v be_v do_v no_o marvel_n if_o a_o good_a king_n be_v in_o god_n condition_n against_o the_o king_n personal_a will_n when_o it_o contradict_v his_o law_n i_o suppose_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o we_o must_v love_v the_o law_n better_a than_o we_o do_v the_o king_n the_o

that_o those_o that_o make_v it_o do_v bear_v as_o ill_o a_o affection_n to_o the_o law_n itself_o as_o fear_v a_o trial_n by_o it_o as_o they_o do_v unto_o the_o king_n who_o will_v bring_v they_o
