the_o law_n of_o god_n to_o the_o contrary_a the_o church_n of_o rome_n teach_v that_o a_o man_n may_v not_o only_o perfect_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o also_o that_o many_o person_n do_v more_o good_a work_n than_o god_n have_v command_v and_o consequent_o be_v more_o righteous_a than_o god_n will_v have_v they_o these_o good_a work_n more_o perfect_a forsooth_o and_o more_o

of_o saint_n who_o have_v do_v no_o more_o but_o what_o god_n have_v command_v have_v also_o for_o their_o labour_n nothing_o but_o eternal_a life_n this_o doctrine_n be_v altogether_o as_o

with_o all_o our_o strength_n if_o any_o man_n do_v then_o more_o than_o god_n have_v command_v in_o his_o law_n he_o serve_v god_n and_o love_v he_o more_o than_o with_o all_o his_o strength_n which_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o that_o he_o do_v that_o which_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v likewise_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o philippian_n chapter_n the_o 4_o command_v we_o to_o

they_o that_o power_n and_o if_o god_n do_v give_v they_o that_o power_n be_v it_o not_o that_o they_o shall_v serve_v he_o they_o be_v therefore_o bind_v to_o do_v those_o work_n and_o if_o so_o then_o be_v they_o no_o more_o work_n of_o super-erogation_a but_o if_o we_o consider_v this_o serious_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o these_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o boast_v that_o they_o do_v more_o than_o god_n do_v either_o require_v or_o command_v do_v absolute_o conceit_v themselves_o to_o be_v far_o more_o just_a and_o more_o holy_a than_o the_o angel_n themselves_o for_o all_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o angel_n consist_v in_o do_v god_n will_v and_o not_o in_o do_v more_o than_o he_o command_v they_o as_o it_o be_v say_v psalm_n 103._o angel_n that_o excel_v in_o
