grace_n and_o mercy_n this_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v learn_v in_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o it_o be_v the_o beginning_a of_o wisdom_n but_o the_o holy_a christian_n faith_n be_v a_o much_o more_o

unto_o our_o glory_n which_o wisdom_n none_o of_o the_o ruler_n of_o this_o world_n do_v know_v these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o sayncte_n paul_n whereby_o he_o declare_v that_o the_o science_n of_o faith_n pass_v all_o other_o science_n and_o teach_v heavenly_a and_o eternal_a wisdom_n that_o excede_v all_o man_n philosophye_n for_o by_o faith_n we_o learn_v to_o know_v god_n what_o he_o be_v and_o what_o love_n he_o bear_v toward_o we_o and_o how_o great_a benefit_n he_o have_v heap_v upon_o us._n for_o by_o faith_n we_o be_v make_v y_o e_o child_n of_o god_n and_o he_o give_v unto_o we_o

be_v not_o unknowen_a to_o god_n how_o hard_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v for_o we_o to_o believe_v that_o god_n frelye_o and_o for_o his_o mere_a mercy_n will_v pardon_v we_o when_o we_o have_v offend_v
