their_o ministerial_a head_n that_o which_o they_o deny_v unto_o the_o imperial_a as_o they_o foolish_o distinguish_v but_o not_o content_a with_o this_o they_o plead_v further_o for_o themselves_o

this_o they_o labour_v to_o confirm_v by_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n principal_o out_o of_o rom._n 5.18_o as_o by_o the_o offence_n of_o one_o man_n many_o dye_n out_o of_o which_o place_n they_o

the_o imputative_a obedience_n of_o christ_n do_v print_n into_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n holiness_n &_o grace_n and_o notiby_o imputation_n only_o this_o argument_n they_o take_v to_o be_v so_o
