of_o faith_n and_o after_o once_o i_o understand_v this_o doctrine_n of_o free-remission_n and_o justification_n by_o faith_n alone_o than_o i_o love_v repentance_n as_o for_o the_o mortification_n of_o sin_n you_o know_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v let_v not_o sin_n reign_v in_o your_o mortal_a body_n 14._o rom._n 6.12_o &_o 14._o or_o have_v dominion_n over_o you_o why_o for_o you_o be_v

when_o she_o become_v the_o wife_n than_o she_o be_v more_o bold_a and_o can_v expect_v more_o because_o now_o she_o be_v near_o a_o child_n may_v have_v more_o boldness_n and_o expect_v more_o from_o
