which_o assertion_n he_o call_v the_o body_n of_o the_o report_n do_v necessary_o require_v the_o circumstance_n destructive_a of_o religion_n and_o morality_n which_o he_o call_v the_o vesture_n to_o the_o say_a body_n forge_v and_o foster_v in_o the_o breast_n of_o doctor_n leyburne_n which_o be_v prove_v thus_o the_o say_a assertion_n import_v so_o sweet_a a_o agreement_n betwixt_o charity_n and_o exterior_a sin_n that_o exterior_a sin_n do_v not_o exclude_v charity_n from_o the_o soul_n nor_o the_o soul_n be_v exclude_v from_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n by_o exterior_a sin_n and_o

this_o argument_n unless_o first_o he_o shall_v undo_v his_o body_n i_o mean_v his_o above_o mention_a assertion_n and_o mould_v it_o anew_o at_o which_o play_n he_o be_v so_o dexterous_a that_o he_o

here_o i_o put_v doctor_n leyburne_n in_o mind_n that_o m._n r_o blacloe_n have_v make_v use_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o prove_v his_o say_a assertion_n instance_v in_o lot_n and_o his_o daughter_n for_o a_o confirmation_n of_o it_o to_o which_o doctor_n leyburne_n answer_v that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n will_v afford_v he_o no_o protection_n in_o its_o sanctuary_n to_o wit_n in_o no_o one_o

however_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v not_o say_v that_o lot_n have_v charity_n with_o his_o exterior_a sin_n and_o m._n r_o blacloe_n go_v fond_o about_o to_o prove_v it_o because_o god_n do_v bless_v the_o progeny_n that_o proceed_v from_o he_o and_o his_o daughter_n for_o god_n do_v bless_v the_o issue_n of_o judas_n and_o thamar_n and_o in_o a_o far_o high_a nature_n christ_n as_o man_n
