now_o you_o justify_v man_n behold_v here_o your_o downfall_n your_o breakneck_n such_o a_o chokemorsel_n for_o you_o as_o if_o s._n paul_n have_v write_v no_o more_o but_o even_o this_o piece_n of_o

as_o they_o make_v he_o of_o this_o righteousness_n will_v not_o s._n paul_n presume_v but_o lay_v it_o aside_o esteem_v it_o no_o better_a than_o loss_n yea_o and_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v but_o

to_o cut_v the_o papist_n off_o from_o cavil_v upon_o this_o place_n that_o s._n paul_n shall_v mean_v his_o righteousness_n before_o grace_n and_o not_o his_o righteousness_n after_o grace_n it_o

my_o lord_n note_v here_o that_o he_o say_v even_o in_o his_o apostleship_n when_o he_o be_v a_o just_a man_n and_o a_o righteous_a person_n that_o he_o think_v all_o thing_n but_o lose_v etc._n
