this_o divine_a light_n you_o call_v the_o light_n within_o so_o that_o you_o differ_v from_o they_o but_o in_o word_n both_o of_o you_o reject_v the_o necessity_n of_o any_o outward_a revelation_n that_o be_v of_o a_o christ_n without_o and_o so_o be_v the_o same_o with_o all_o the_o pagan_a or_o gentile_n world_n for_o they_o too_o and_o the_o latter_a mahometan_n allow_v jesus_n to_o have_v

the_o light_n or_o christ_n which_o it_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o say_v of_o any_o other_o and_o yet_o if_o man_n have_v no_o other_o light_n in_o he_o but_o the_o divine_a and_o that_o be_v make_v
