as_o attribute_v it_o to_o thyself_o and_o lift_v up_o thyself_o above_o thy_o brother_n by_o it_o this_o be_v clear_o and_o evident_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o place_n which_o be_v keep_v to_o we_o can_v err_v by_o occasion_n of_o his_o word_n but_o if_o we_o will_v take_v his_o word_n and_o carry_v they_o from_o their_o scope_n we_o may_v perchance_o through_o our_o reason_n fall_v into_o mistake_n as_o if_o we_o shall_v thence_o argue_v that_o we_o have_v no_o cause_n or_o ground_n any_o of_o we_o to_o commend_v one_o man_n diligence_n in_o the_o use_n of_o his_o talon_n and_o fault_n another_o man_n slothfulness_n or_o that_o the_o slothful_a aught_o in_o like_a manner_n to_o be_v excuse_v or_o not_o blame_v as_o the_o other_o that_o have_v less_o

thence_o conclude_v that_o god_n make_v adam_n to_o differ_v from_o himself_o by_o fall_v from_o his_o create_a innocency_n or_o suppose_v there_o have_v be_v another_o man_n every_o way_n as_o

if_o so_o then_o how_o have_v adam_n power_n to_o have_v stand_v and_o how_o be_v his_o fall_n mere_o wilful_a and_o voluntary_a nay_o how_o can_v it_o
