3._o there_o be_v a_o free_a and_o a_o voluntary_a acceptation_n and_o consent_n on_o the_o creature_n part_v to_o embrace_v this_o god_n for_o he_o and_o to_o give_v up_o himself_o to_o he_o to_o

a_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o he_o have_v break_v and_o in_o fly_v unto_o the_o seal_n of_o this_o covenant_n he_o may_v still_o seek_v righteousness_n and_o life_n thereby_o if_o not_o

have_v appoint_v a_o way_n to_o life_n for_o man_n by_o christ_n a_o far_o more_o glorious_a tree_n of_o life_n who_o be_v therefore_o say_v to_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o paradise_n of_o
