some_o reconcile_v it_o thus_o repentance_n have_v two_o part_n the_o aversion_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o sin_n and_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o god_n the_o latter_a part_n of_o it_o be_v only_o a_o effect_n of_o faith_n the_o former_a part_n of_o it_o viz._n the_o turn_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o sin_n be_v also_o a_o effect_n but_o not_o only_o a_o effect_n for_o it_o be_v begin_v before_o faith_n though_o it_o be_v not_o end_v till_o our_o life_n end_n some_o object_n that_o god_n work_v repentance_n and_o faith_n together_o but_o we_o dispute_v not_o how_o god_n work_v they_o but_o how_o the_o soul_n act_v they_o not_o which_o be_v in_o the_o soul_n first_o but_o which_o appear_v out_o of_o the_o soul_n first_o neither_o be_v it_o any_o new_a thing_n in_o

nature_n in_o diverse_a respect_n to_o their_o several_a causality_n thus_o a_o man_n must_v have_v repentance_n before_o he_o have_v save_v and_o justify_v faith_n and_o yet_o a_o man_n must_v have_v faith_n before_o the_o work_n of_o repentance_n be_v perfect_a in_o the_o soul_n as_o we_o maintain_v repentance_n to_o be_v a_o precedent_a work_n so_o we_o deny_v it_o not_o to_o be_v a_o
