both_o of_o the_o want_n of_o fear_n to_o god_n and_o love_n to_o our_o neighbour_n salutation_n be_v prayer_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n must_v with_o all_o

that_o paul_n wish_v 1._o grace_n 2._o peace_n 2._o from_o who_o he_o wish_v they_o 1._o from_o god_n the_o father_n 2._o from_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n first_o for_o the_o thing_n desire_v

by_o the_o grace_n and_o free_a favour_n of_o god_n as_o john_n 1._o 16._o and_o of_o his_o fullness_n have_v we_o all_o receive_a take_v grace_n how_o take_v grace_n upon_o grace_n and_o verse_n

god_n go_v about_o to_o fit_v and_o prepare_v we_o for_o his_o favour_n so_o the_o apostle_n direct_o affirm_v rom._n 5._o god_n set_v out_o his_o love_n unto_o we_o that_o when_o we_o be_v sinner_n

yet_o the_o observe_v reader_n may_v easy_o have_v say_v these_o epistle_n smell_v of_o the_o prison_n as_o he_o say_v of_o the_o elaborate_a oration_n of_o the_o orator_n that_o it_o smell_v of_o
