do_v great_o provoke_v the_o lord_n christ_n and_o loose_v all_o they_o do_v though_o man_n can_v walk_v as_o exact_o as_o the_o very_a angel_n yet_o if_o that_o exactness_n shall_v draw_v they_o to_o

these_o sort_n of_o man_n will_v be_v find_v to_o set_v up_o their_o own_o rule_n above_o christ_n rule_n and_o oh_o how_o dangerous_a be_v it_o and_o as_o i_o say_v before_o so_o again_o and_o oh_o that_o it_o may_v be_v remember_v it_o be_v a_o pull_v christ_n out_o of_o his_o throne_n for_o man_n to_o decline_v his_o rule_n the_o rule_n of_o his_o word_n which_o he_o have_v give_v they_o to_o

with_o such_o a_o people_n as_o shall_v exalt_v any_o invention_n above_o christ_n rule_n the_o rule_n of_o the_o word_n but_o it_o may_v be_v that_o they_o will_v say_v object_n they_o do_v not_o
