to_o the_o whole_a nation_n be_v a_o outward_a dignity_n or_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o covenant_n whereby_o all_o the_o child_n be_v within_o the_o covenant_n which_o be_v make_v to_o their_o father_n the_o right_a to_o this_o covenant_n be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n call_v holiness_n and_o from_o this_o the_o apostle_n argument_n be_v good_a if_o the_o root_n be_v holy_a that_o be_v

whether_o do_v this_o belong_v to_o we_o and_o to_o our_o child_n whereto_o i_o answer_v that_o branch_n answ_n some_o be_v native_a some_o ingraft_v the_o sap_n and_o the_o moisture_n and_o the_o

be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o christian_n by_o the_o same_o right_n bear_v christian_n and_o as_o this_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v not_o confer_v upon_o they_o by_o circumcision_n but_o only_o
