the_o welfare_n and_o benefit_n of_o man_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v very_o good_a and_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a those_o be_v always_o best_o which_o may_v redound_v to_o the_o commodity_n of_o most_o person_n and_o which_o be_v once_o possess_v can_v be_v take_v away_o against_o the_o will_n of_o the_o possess_a see_v then_o that_o the_o foundation_n of_o this_o work_n be_v

to_o be_v edify_v and_o strengthen_v in_o christ_n which_o thing_n will_v appear_v yet_o more_o plain_o if_o beside_o these_o generality_n which_o it_o have_v common_a with_o all_o the_o residue_n
