to_o all_o not_o simple_o but_o to_o all_o with_o a_o restraint_n to_o all_o the_o elect_a not_o to_o any_o one_o of_o the_o reprobate_n and_o then_o likewise_o you_o hear_v that_o this_o doctrine_n

the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n consist_v chief_o and_o especial_o in_o our_o hearty_a and_o earnest_a desire_n of_o do_v it_o and_o therefore_o what_o they_o think_v may_v not_o altogether_o be_v reject_v that_o outward_a obedience_n be_v necessary_a for_o our_o do_v of_o god_n will_v be_v so_o plain_a that_o it_o need_v no_o proof_n for_o to_o who_o give_v god_n his_o

thus_o much_o of_o the_o first_o proposition_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o our_o outward_a obedience_n the_o second_o proposition_n if_o you_o remember_v be_v this_o the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o will_n
