12.50_o such_o matth._n 12.50_o by_o the_o name_n of_o his_o mother_n we_o be_v to_o rejoice_v with_o all_o that_o do_v rejoice_v but_o especial_o when_o we_o be_v sharer_n in_o the_o mercy_n and_o
still_o be_v not_o our_o principle_n sure_a our_o hope_n clear_a and_o our_o probability_n fair_a and_o our_o gain_n like_v to_o be_v infinite_o more_o why_o then_o do_v we_o say_v these_o principle_n over_o as_o it_o be_v some_o lesson_n that_o be_v never_o to_o be_v put_v in_o practice_n let_v we_o turn_v our_o creed_n into_o syllogism_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v what_o consequence_n necessary_o flow_v from_o it_o and_o let_v we_o so_o firm_o believe_v it_o that_o our_o conversation_n may_v be_v the_o natural_a conclusion_n from_o those_o premise_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n who_o natural_a logic_n will_v not_o enable_v he_o to_o argue_v thus_o he_o that_o believe_v god_n to_o be_v almighty_a and_o that_o he_o make_v he_o and_o all_o the_o world_n must_v love_v and_o fear_v this_o god_n and_o trust_n in_o he_o in_o all_o his_o need_n but_o i_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n almighty_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o i_o must_v love_v and_o fear_n and_o trust_v in_o he_o at_o all_o time_n or_o thus_o whoever_o deserve_v and_o fear_v god_n wrath_n can_v true_o believe_v jesus_n come_v to_o save_v he_o from_o it_o but_o he_o must_v speedy_o apply_v himself_o to_o he_o

we_o have_v add_v to_o the_o paraphrase_n the_o follow_a application_n the_o paraphrase_n and_o application_n of_o the_o creed_n art_n 1._o i_o believe_v most_o firm_o in_o one_o infinite_a and_o eternal_a god_n who_o be_v a_o most_o powerful_a wise_a gracious_a and_o pure_a spirit_n distinguish_v into_o three_o person_n the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v the_o father_n almighty_n who_o be_v the_o maker_n of_o i_o and_o all_o the_o creature_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o preserver_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o the_o world_n wherefore_o i_o be_o oblige_v and_o resolve_v to_o own_v

person_n of_o the_o glorious_a trinity_n even_o in_o jesus_n christ_n our_o anoint_a saviour_n who_o be_v very_a god_n equal_a to_o the_o father_n be_v his_n only_a son_n by_o eternal_a generation_n and_o be_v now_o become_v our_o lord_n by_o the_o merciful_a redemption_n of_o our_o soul_n from_o death_n and_o hell_n wherefore_o i_o be_o oblige_v and_o resolve_v most_o thankful_o to_o commit_v my_o salvation_n to_o the_o management_n of_o my_o glorious_a and_o gracious_a redeemer_n and_o as_o anoint_a by_o god_n to_o be_v a_o prophet_n priest_n and_o king_n to_o observe_v his_o teach_n

his_o only_a son_n be_v my_o redeemer_n art_n 3._o i_o do_v also_o most_o firm_o believe_v it_o be_v this_o very_a son_n of_o god_n who_o become_v man_n and_o yet_o be_v conceive_a free_v from_o sin_n by_o the_o overshadow_a power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o assume_v our_o nature_n and_o unite_n it_o to_o his_o own_o divine_a nature_n be_v bear_v of_o the_o bless_v virgin_n mary_n so_o that_o he_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n two_o nature_n in_o one_o person_n wherefore_o i_o be_o oblige_v and_o resolve_v to_o be_v most_o thankful_a for_o that_o miraculous_a condescension_n and_o to_o learn_v to_o submit_v to_o the_o mean_a condition_n to_o do_v good_a and_o to_o be_v careful_a not_o to_o defile_v my_o nature_n which_o jesus_n have_v unite_v to_o the_o divinity_n and_o i_o be_o encourage_v to_o pray_v that_o i_o may_v be_v sustain_v under_o the_o necessity_n of_o my_o frail_a estate_n which_o jesus_n be_v acquaint_v with_o and_o purge_v from_o the_o corruption_n which_o

do_v also_o most_o firm_o believe_v that_o the_o holy_a jesus_n be_v to_o satisfy_v the_o divine_a justice_n for_o our_o offence_n suffer_v the_o wrath_n which_o we_o have_v deserve_v and_o under_o pontius_n pilate_n the_o roman_a governor_n though_o most_o innocent_a in_o himself_o he_o be_v crucify_a till_o with_o cruel_a torment_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n he_o have_v offer_v up_o his_o life_n a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n he_o be_v real_o dead_a and_o bury_v and_o take_v possession_n of_o the_o region_n of_o darkness_n for_o he_o descend_v into_o hell_n and_o remain_v under_o the_o power_n of_o death_n for_o a_o time_n wherefore_o i_o be_o oblige_v and_o resolve_v to_o lament_v for_o and_o crucify_v my_o sin_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o bitter_a passion_n to_o beware_v least_o by_o continue_v in_o they_o i_o bring_v myself_o under_o the_o same_o curse_n and_o loose_v the_o benefit_n of_o this_o all-saving_a death_n and_o also_o to_o learn_v from_o he_o to_o suffer_v patient_o and_o die_v cheerful_o when_o god_n please_v and_o i_o be_o hereby_o encourage_v to_o pray_v that_o i_o may_v not_o suffer_v what_o christ_n have_v endure_v for_o i_o that_o this_o

in_o i_o that_o which_o have_v crucify_v he_o art_n 5._o i_o do_v also_o most_o firm_o believe_v that_o when_o he_o have_v pay_v the_o full_a price_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n death_n can_v no_o long_o hold_v he_o so_o that_o the_o three_o day_n after_o his_o suffering_n by_o a_o infinite_a power_n he_o arise_v again_o assure_v we_o that_o justice_n be_v satisfy_v and_o our_o enemy_n

to_o trust_v in_o his_o power_n for_o my_o safety_n to_o rely_v on_o his_o all-sufficient_a merit_n for_o my_o pardon_n and_o to_o endeavour_v to_o rise_v from_o the_o death_n of_o sin_n to_o walk_v
