sin_n be_v to_o the_o intent_n therefore_o we_o may_v more_o narrow_o search_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n it_o be_v requisite_a that_o we_o look_v upon_o the_o law_n itself_o by_o the_o transgression_n whereof_o sin_n be_v commit_v for_o so_o counsel_v the_o apostle_n where_o as_o rom._n 3._o he_o say_v by_o the_o law_n come_v the_o knowledge_n of_o sin_n again_o rome_n 7._o i_o know_v not_o sin_n

what_o it_o command_v &_o what_o it_o forbid_v so_o shall_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n more_o clear_o appear_v unto_o we_o certes_o the_o law_n forbid_v partiality_n in_o word_n thou_o shall_v not_o

all_o our_o heart_n with_o all_o our_o mind_n and_o with_o all_o our_o strength_n and_o again_o that_o in_o the_o last_o precept_n of_o the_o second_o table_n it_o be_v forbid_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o lust_n by_o these_o thing_n now_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v condemn_v wicked_a word_n and_o deed_n all_o sinful_a lust_n &_o affection_n &_o perverse_a cogitation_n and_o thought_n hide_v in_o the_o very_a entrails_n of_o the_o heart_n i_o will_v conclude_v therefore_o that_o sin_n be_v every_o lust_n thought_n will_n study_n word_n and_o deed_n dissent_v from_o the_o law_n of_o god._n and_o doubtless_o as_o touch_v deed_n unjust_o commit_v there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o judge_v of_o they_o 1.3_o yea_o and_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v
