and_o that_o which_o be_v not_o bear_v of_o he_o in_o other_o term_n no_o man_n be_v regenerate_v but_o in_o part_n or_o sanctify_v but_o in_o part_n not_o as_o if_o one_o faculty_n be_v sanctify_v and_o not_o another_o but_o there_o remain_v the_o principle_n of_o corruption_n together_o with_o the_o principle_n of_o grace_n which_o be_v infuse_v that_o be_v both_o flesh_n and_o spirit_n in_o

when_o he_o do_v the_o evil_n he_o will_v not_o it_o be_v no_o more_o i_o say_v he_o that_o do_v it_o but_o sin_n that_o dwell_v in_o i_o if_o it_o be_v not_o be_v then_o that_o do_v it_o the_o

nevertheless_o that_o which_o i_o propose_v here_o from_o what_o be_v say_v seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v more_o clear_a and_o weighty_a there_o be_v some_o text_n say_v that_o all_o man_n be_v sinner_n and_o other_o that_o the_o regenerate_v do_v not_o sin_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n i_o distinguish_v then_o of_o sin_n sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o
