by_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n which_o the_o papist_n hold_v to_o concur_v in_o we_o to_o the_o act_n of_o justification_n as_o the_o cause_n thereof_o where_o first_o we_o be_v to_o explain_v our_o

their_o own_o knowledge_n calumniate_v our_o doctrine_n in_o this_o point_n i_o will_v therefore_o explain_v all_o the_o three_o term_n fides_n justificat_fw-la sola_fw-la i'faith_o do_v justify_v
