although_o he_o be_v not_o under_o the_o law_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v gain_v those_o which_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o to_o those_o which_o be_v without_o the_o law_n he_o be_v as_o one_o without_o the_o law_n although_o he_o be_v not_o without_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o under_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v get_v those_o which_o be_v without_o the_o law_n and_o he_o

of_o other_o beast_n or_o blood_n because_o the_o lord_n love_v cleanness_n and_o sobriety_n and_o hate_v gluttony_n and_o uncleanness_n and_o our_o lord_n also_o great_o love_v those_o that_o
