i_o think_v all_o pious_a man_n will_v grant_v to_o molinaeus_n god_n do_v not_o work_v by_o mere_a suasion_n not_o only_o upon_o the_o mind_n but_o upon_o the_o will_n by_o inspire_v salutary_a

that_o fort_n for_o which_o god_n threaten_v he_o will_v send_v a_o famine_n of_o the_o word_n likewise_o if_o in_o be_v inquire_v why_o god_n harden_v some_o to_o who_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v the_o answer_n be_v because_o they_o have_v harden_v themselves_o before_o for_o as_o austin_n speak_v then_o begin_v they_o to_o deserve_v punishment_n when_o be_v call_v they_o neglect_v to_o come_v

than_o the_o other_o here_o it_o can_v be_v answer_v so_o as_o to_o give_v a_o general_a reason_n in_o either_o case_n from_o man_n for_o it_o be_v certain_o great_a benefit_n do_v often_o fall_v to_o they_o who_o be_v the_o more_o undeserving_a person_n recourse_n must_v be_v have_v in_o this_o affair_n to_o the_o divine_a liberty_n next_o as_o to_o the_o certainty_n of_o salvation_n i_o do_v

therefore_o not_o at_o all_o absolute_o but_o not_o to_o be_v deceive_v with_o ambiguity_n of_o word_n we_o must_v note_v all_o the_o ancient_n so_o affirm_v that_o faith_n which_o may_v be_v

very_o my_o opinion_n be_v that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o thing_n divine_a be_v requisite_a in_o a_o king_n and_o in_o his_o chief_a counsellor_n not_o that_o he_o may_v be_v a_o king_n they_o
