the_o greek_a word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d to_o remove_v from_o himself_o so_o a_o tree_n let_v we_o go_v the_o bark_n remittit_fw-la librum_fw-la a_o horsman_n let_v we_o go_v the_o bridle_n

apply_v to_o punishment_n for_o debt_n nor_o to_o debt_n for_o punishment_n but_o to_o both_o for_o another_o thing_n in_o which_o those_o agree_v with_o one_o another_o it_o may_v be_v add_v that_o in_o some_o sense_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o punishment_n be_v owe_v to_o a_o man_n not_o proper_o because_o no_o man_n here_o be_v real_o a_o creditor_n but_o for_o some_o resemblance_n for_o because_o as_o the_o creditor_n have_v power_n of_o exact_v the_o debt_n that_o be_v due_a to_o he_o so_o the_o governor_n have_v power_n of_o punish_v and_o the_o accuser_n of_o require_v punishment_n therefore_o sometime_o we_o be_v say_v catachrestical_o to_o owe_v punishment_n either_o to_o a_o governor_n as_o to_o god_n or_o to_o a_o accuser_n as_o to_o the_o devil_n though_o neither_o be_v the_o devil_n injure_v if_o punishment_n be_v not_o inflict_v on_o a_o man_n neither_o do_v it_o consist_v with_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n to_o remit_v in_o infinitum_fw-la infinite_o

some_o name_n to_o the_o act_n itself_o and_o first_o because_o god_n be_v here_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o we_o have_v prove_v as_o a_o governor_n it_o follow_v that_o this_o act_n be_v a_o act_n of_o jurisdiction_n general_o so_o call_v whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o discourse_n be_v not_o here_o of_o acceptilation_n take_v a_o debt_n for_o pay_v as_o socinus_n think_v for_o that_o be_v not_o a_o act_n of_o jurisdiction_n that_o its_o own_o genus_fw-la may_v be_v more_o near_o attribute_v unto_o this_o act_n the_o act_n itself_o may_v be_v consider_v either_o with_o relation_n to_o the_o divine_a sanction_n or_o as_o modern_a lawyer_n speak_v the_o penal_a law_n or_o without_o that_o relation_n which_o we_o therefore_o add_v because_o though_o no_o law_n have_v express_v punishment_n yet_o natural_o the_o human_a act_n itself_o whether_o have_v a_o intrins●…al_a pravity_n from_o the_o unchangeable_a nature_n of_o the_o thing_n or_o also_o extrinsical_a for_o the_o contrary_a command_n of_o god_n for_o that_o very_a cause_n deserve_v some_o punishment_n and_o that_o a_o heavy_a one_o that_o be_v it_o be_v just_a that_o man_n be_v a_o sinner_n shall_v be_v punish_v if_o we_o consider_v it_o thus_o the_o act_n of_o god_n of_o which_o we_o treat_v will_v be_v the_o punishment_n of_o one_o to_o procure_v freedom_n from_o punishment_n to_o another_o concern_v the_o justice_n of_o which_o act_n we_o shall_v present_o discourse_v but_o if_o furthermore_o we_o look_v back_o to_o the_o sanction_n or_o the_o penal_a act_n the_o act_n itself_o will_v be_v a_o way_n to_o indulgence_n or_o a_o moderation_n of_o the_o same_o law_n which_o indulgence_n at_o this_o day_n we_o call_v dispensation_n which_o may_v be_v define_v a_o act_n of_o a_o
