they_o be_v justify_v of_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o inward_a and_o outward_a vocation_n and_o whereunto_o they_o serve_v m._n will_v thou_o say_v that_o all_o those_o which_o be_v call_v by_o such_o

the_o glory_n of_o god_n to_o be_v prefer_v to_o all_o creature_n and_o if_o that_o all_o the_o creature_n shall_v perish_v wherefore_o shall_v we_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o god_n be_v glorify_v

therefore_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o this_o offence_n which_o many_o give_v unto_o themselves_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o reprobation_n of_o the_o reprobate_n proceed_v not_o but_o from_o a_o marvelous_a great_a pride_n and_o arrogancy_n of_o the_o flesh_n which_o esteem_v itself_o more_o than_o it_o ought_v to_o do_v for_o if_o it_o have_v so_o small_a a_o estimation_n of_o itself_o as_o the_o worthiness_n thereof_o require_v and_o do_v esteem_v god_n &_o his_o glory_n so_o much_o as_o it_o ought_v to_o do_v he_o shall_v not_o only_o not_o find_v it_o strange_a to_o know_v that_o
