let_v we_o first_o mark_n that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a mind_n to_o geve_v thanks_n unto_o god_n envy_n what_o thing_n be_v most_o contrary_a unto_o envy_n as_o well_o for_o the_o

he_o say_v that_o he_o geve_v thanks_n unto_o his_o god_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v doubt_v but_o that_o god_n of_o his_o own_o nature_n be_v common_a to_o all_o and_o yet_o the_o saint_n do_v make_v god_n the_o saint_n call_v god_n their_o god_n he_o proper_a unto_o themselves_o not_o to_o this_o intent_n to_o exclude_v their_o fellow_n and_o partner_n but_o they_o be_v provoke_v thereunto_o by_o a_o certain_a private_a feeling_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n which_o stir_v they_o up_o to_o use_v this_o kind_n of_o speech_n beside_o this_o they_o perceyve_v that_o certain_a thing_n be_v

we_o see_v that_o in_o the_o christian_n and_o in_o the_o ungodly_a there_o be_v a_o far_o sundry_a mind_n through_o jesus_n christ_n he_o geve_v thanks_n through_o he_o because_o by_o the_o christ_n

who_o he_o writ_v because_o he_o desire_v nothing_o more_o then_o that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v and_o his_o kingdom_n enlarge_v which_o thing_n when_o he_o see_v to_o have_v
