some_o few_o but_o all_o and_o every_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n as_o david_n say_v psal_a 119._o 6._o then_o shall_v i_o not_o be_v confound_v when_o i_o have_v respect_n to_o all_o

have_v in_o they_o likewise_o the_o seed_n of_o all_o virtue_n needful_a to_o salvation_n and_o hereupon_o they_o both_o can_v and_o do_v endeavour_n to_o yield_v perfect_a obedience_n unto_o god_n according_a to_o the_o whole_a law_n and_o they_o may_v be_v term_v perfect_a as_o a_o child_n be_v call_v a_o perfect_a man_n though_o it_o want_v perfection_n of_o age_n and_o stature_n and_o

of_o any_o mere_a man_n or_o angel_n nor_o in_o all_o man_n and_o angel_n but_o only_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n god_n and_o man_n who_o work_n be_v not_o only_o answerable_a to_o the_o perfection_n of_o the_o law_n but_o go_v far_o beyond_o the_o same_o for_o first_o the_o obedience_n of_o his_o life_n consider_v alone_o by_o itself_o be_v answerable_a even_o to_o the_o rigour_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o the_o suffering_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n be_v more_o than_o the_o law_n can_v require_v at_o his_o hand_n consider_v it_o require_v no_o punishment_n of_o he_o that_o be_v a_o doer_n of_o all_o thing_n contain_v therein_o second_o the_o very_a rigour_n of_o the_o law_n require_v obedience_n only_o of_o they_o that_o be_v mere_a man_n but_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o obedience_n of_o a_o person_n that_o be_v both_o god_n &_o man_n three_o the_o law_n require_v personal_a obedience_n that_o be_v that_o every_o man_n fulfil_v

sufficient_a for_o many_o thousand_o world_n and_o by_o reason_n the_o law_n require_v no_o obedience_n of_o he_o that_o be_v god_n this_o obedience_n therefore_o may_v true_o be_v term_v a_o work_n of_o supererrogation_n this_o one_o we_o acknowledge_v and_o beside_o this_o we_o dare_v acknowledge_v none_o and_o thus_o far_o we_o agree_v with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o estate_n of_o perfection_n and_o further_o we_o dare_v not_o go_v the_o difference_n the_o papist_n hold_v as_o the_o writing_n of_o the_o learned_a among_o they_o teach_v that_o a_o man_n

which_o be_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o law_n in_o every_o commandment_n whereby_o eternal_a life_n be_v deserve_v the_o second_o be_v profitable_a perfection_n when_o man_n do_v not_o only_o such_o

they_o shall_v be_v reward_v with_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o glory_n than_o the_o law_n design_v this_o they_o make_v plain_a by_o comparison_n two_o soldier_n fight_v in_o the_o field_n under_o

of_o love_n that_o can_v befall_v a_o creature_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o in_o love_a god_n no_o man_n can_v possible_o do_v more_o than_o the_o law_n require_v and_o therefore_o the_o
