the_o eight_o sermon_n although_o i_o have_v hitherto_o in_o large_a sermon_n lay_v forth_o the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o several_a part_n yet_o i_o think_v i_o have_v not_o say_v all_o that_o shall_v

it_o may_v be_v call_v back_o to_o three_o especial_a point_n and_o we_o may_v say_v that_o the_o use_v thereof_o be_v threefold_a or_o of_o three_o sort_n for_o first_o of_o all_o the_o chief_a and_o

set_v forth_o to_o we_o the_o holy_a will_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o set_n forth_o thereof_o require_v of_o we_o a_o most_o perfect_v and_o absolute_a kind_n of_o righteousness_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n the_o law_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v call_v the_o testimony_n of_o god_n will_v and_o the_o most_o perfect_a exampler_n of_o his_o divine_a pureness_n and_o hereunto_o belong_v those_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o gospel_n where_o he_o recite_v short_o the_o sum_n of_o god_n commandment_n do_v say_v the_o first_o of_o all_o the_o commandment_n be_v hear_v oh_o israel_n the_o lord_n la●●_n our_o god_n be_v one_o lord_n and_o thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o soul_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o mind_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o strength_n this_o be_v the_o first_o commandment_n and_o the_o second_o like_v to_o this_o thou_o shall_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o there_o be_v none_o other_o commandment_n great_a than_o these_o therefore_o to_o this_o do_v also_o appertain_v that_o say_v of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v charity_n out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a but_o since_o the_o law_n do_v require_v at_o all_o our_o hand_n most_o absolute_a righteousness_n charity_n and_o a_o pure_a heart_n it_o do_v condemn_v all_o man_n of_o sin_n unrighteousness_n and_o death_n for_o in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n it_o be_v express_o say_v curse_a be_v every_o one_o which_o abide_v not_o in_o all_o that_o be_v

if_o he_o be_v compare_v to_o god_n if_o he_o will_v argue_v with_o he_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o answer_v one_o for_o a_o thousand_o if_o i_o have_v any_o righteousness_n in_o i_o i_o will_v not_o answer_v he_o but_o i_o will_v beseech_v my_o judge_n like_o to_o these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n john_n who_o say_v if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v no_o sin_n we_o deceive_v our_o self_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v not_o in_o us._n again_o if_o we_o say_v we_o have_v not_o sin_v we_o make_v he_o a_o liar_n and_o his_o word_n be_v not_o in_o us._n therefore_o by_o this_o
