one_o that_o do_v believe_v by_o this_o then_o 〈…〉_o well_o perceive_v that_o the_o only_a mean_a and_o instrument_n of_o salvation_n require_v of_o our_o part_n be_v faith_n that_o be_v to_o say_v

therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o that_o we_o must_v apprehend_v the_o merit_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o passion_n by_o faith_n and_o that_o with_o a_o strong_a and_o steadfast_a faith_n nothing_o
