christian_a religion_n sing_v that_o infidelite_n &_o un_fw-fr faythfulnes_n be_v the_o destruction_n and_o utter_v decay_n thereof_o for_o so_o long_o as_o faith_n remain_v so_o long_o do_v the_o

of_o so_o bounteous_a a_o lord_n they_o become_v subject_n bond_n &_o thraul_n to_o all_o kind_n of_o misery_n &_o wretchedness_n so_o that_o through_o their_o unfaythfulnes_n conjoin_v with_o it_o like_o disobedience_n v._o not_o they_o themselves_o only_o fell_a into_o captivite_fw-la but_o also_o all_o their_o posteri_fw-la te_fw-la now_o to_o be_v make_v free_a from_o this_o thrauldome_n &_o

which_o he_o have_v make_v to_o we_o so_o plente_v ouslye_o in_o y_z e_z moost_n precious_a blood_n of_o his_o dere_o belove_a son_n oâ—…re_a lord_n &_o saviour_n jesu_n christ._n for_o this_o faith_n

xiiii_o we_o do_v must_v needs_o come_v to_o nought_o &_o work_v to_o we_o damnation_n but_o sing_v that_o i_o have_v speak_v much_o of_o faith_n in_o all_o my_o work_n almooste_v which_o i_o have_v

he_o have_v make_v mention_v of_o faith_n he_o singe_v also_o of_o good_a work_n i_o beleve_v say_v he_o &_o therefore_o have_v i_o speak_v here_o see_v we_o that_o the_o true_a &_o christen_v faith_n work_v ever_o by_o charite_n which_o extend_v both_o v._n unto_o god_n &_o our_o neighbour_n what_o be_v you_o e_o cause_n that_o david_n do_v speak_v uere_o his_o faith_n i_o beleve_v say_v goodness_n he_o &_o therefore_o have_v i_o speak_v faith_n go_v before_o &_o work_v follow_v for_o first_o he_o beleve_v all_o thing_n to_o be_v true_a which_o god_n promise_v he_o in_o the_o holy_a
