the_o nature_n of_o the_o godhead_n although_o every_o person_n entire_o hold_v his_o own_o incommunicable_a property_n and_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n can_v be_v the_o father_n nor_o the_o son_n so_o that_o in_o a_o word_n all_o three_o be_v the_o same_o essence_n and_o yet_o neither_o of_o the_o three_o can_v be_v the_o person_n of_o the_o other_o also_o from_o these_o inward_a action_n or_o

of_o relation_n unto_o the_o father_n and_o so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v be_v not_o a_o name_n of_o essence_n but_o of_o relation_n to_o the_o father_n &_o the_o son_n &_o therefore_o these_o
