if_o the_o innocent_a party_n offer_v himself_o spontaneous_o to_o punishment_n if_o he_o can_v go_v through_o it_o and_o get_v out_o of_o it_o and_o if_o this_o tend_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n

because_o satisfaction_n be_v require_v to_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o we_o say_v the_o satisfaction_n require_v be_v not_o make_v by_o we_o but_o by_o another_o if_o we_o be_v urge_v
