because_o they_o be_v in_o scripture_n describe_v as_o the_o true_a god_n which_o be_v only_o one_o 3._o because_o there_o be_v one_o spirit_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n 4._o because_o the_o father_n communicate_v to_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o son_n to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n not_o a_o other_o but_o his_o own_o proper_a essence_n and_o that_o whole_a and_o

although_o they_o be_v common_a to_o the_o three_o person_n yet_o the_o order_n which_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n observe_v in_o perform_v they_o make_v their_o difference_n external_a as_o that_o the_o father_n do_v all_o thing_n of_o himself_o by_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n the_o son_n &_o holy_a ghost_n not_o of_o themselves_o but_o the_o son_n of_o the_o father_n by_o the_o
