to_o we_o with_o beast_n from_o reason_n grow_v election_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o man_n and_o from_o the_o mind_n and_o spirit_n in_o which_o the_o image_n of_o the_o divine_a essence_n be_v

the_o natural_a affection_n of_o earthly_a thing_n which_o offer_v violence_n to_o all_o the_o power_n of_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v transport_v and_o lift_v up_o to_o the_o desire_n of_o celestial_a

to_o think_v it_o superfluous_a and_o unprofitable_a but_o well_o beseem_v a_o christian_a man_n to_o inquire_v after_o that_o which_o god_n will_v have_v we_o know_v and_o which_o we_o may_v know_v and_o to_o consider_v well_o of_o he_o work_v wherein_o he_o manife_v his_o providence_n and_o wisdom_n especial_o in_o man_n who_o be_v as_o we_o have_v hear_v the_o chief_a of_o all_o his_o work_n

138._o the_o scripture_n testify_v unto_o we_o in_o many_o place_n that_o he_o be_v not_o only_o a_o preserver_n of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v make_v but_o also_o that_o he_o leave_v not_o he_o
