it_o be_v veil_v or_o forbid_v he_o only_a their_o be_v as_o forward_o as_o their_o husband_n but_o give_v they_o leave_v to_o speak_v in_o the_o church_n so_o it_o be_v with_o good_a manner_n and_o

that_o they_o may_v not_o so_o much_o as_o ask_v a_o question_n for_o learning_n any_o thing_n themselves_o vers_fw-la 35._o much_o less_o teach_v other_o any_o thing_n i_o therefore_o conclude_v this_o as_o a_o most_o certain_a and_o undeniable_a truth_n that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v here_o of_o such_o a_o gift_n and_o exercise_n as_o woman_n be_v simple_o forbid_v to_o use_v in_o the_o

this_o epistle_n his_o last_o answer_n now_o come_v in_o consideration_n which_o be_v that_o the_o consequence_n be_v ill_a woman_n be_v forbid_v and_o therefore_o man_n be_v permit_v to_o prophesy_v in_o the_o church_n by_o a_o ordinary_a gift_n if_o the_o consequence_n seem_v not_o good_a why_o do_v he_o so_o struggle_v as_o before_o otherwise_o to_o make_v a_o escape_n from_o the_o argument_n let_v we_o consider_v of_o the_o force_n of_o it_o which_o appear_v to_o i_o irresistible_a in_o these_o 3._o thing_n first_o the_o apostle_n in_o and_o for_o this_o work_n oppose_v the_o man_n to_o the_o woman_n sex_n to_o sex_n &_o so_o in_o prohibit_v woman_n he_o permit_v man_n when_o the_o h._n ghost_n oppose_v faith_n and_o work_v in_o the_o case_n of_o justification_n deny_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o work_n be_v not_o the_o consequence_n good_a that_o therefore_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n where_o he_o oppose_v believer_n &_o unbeliever_n in_o the_o case_n of_o

confess_v myself_o far_o to_o seek_v both_o in_o logic_n and_o divinity_n second_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o prohibition_n of_o woman_n prove_v the_o consequence_n which_o be_v all_o such_o as_o
