before_o his_o fall_n i_o can_v see_v neither_o find_v i_o any_o scripture_n to_o lead_v i_o to_o believe_v it_o i_o acknowledge_v that_o assoon_o as_o ever_o adam_n have_v transgress_v he_o come_v to_o know_v good_a and_o evil_a which_o he_o do_v not_o know_v before_o and_o this_o law_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n be_v then_o write_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o he_o that_o can_v not_o keep_v

of_o himself_o and_o his_o posterity_n in_o misery_n but_o because_o this_o opinion_n be_v so_o often_o repeat_v by_o the_o author_n in_o his_o book_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v to_o what_o it_o tend_v and_o what_o use_n we_o may_v make_v of_o it_o do_v it_o serve_v to_o illustrate_v or_o set_v forth_o any_o point_n of_o doctrine_n in_o the_o scripture_n or_o do_v the_o contrary_a which_o i_o have_v

tend_v to_o edification_n but_o be_v a_o mere_a fancy_n of_o your_o own_o brain_n you_o tell_v we_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o all_o author_n and_o interpreter_n that_o you_o know_v but_o you_o tell_v we_o none_o of_o their_o name_n nor_o none_o of_o the_o scripture_n they_o have_v so_o interpret_v for_o the_o proof_n thereof_o and_o so_o i_o take_v it_o as_o your_o own_o opinion_n which_o i_o dare_v not_o receive_v until_o i_o see_v better_a ground_n for_o it_o i_o take_v notice_n also_o how_o fine_o you_o will_v insinuate_v unto_o we_o that_o adam_n in_o eat_v the_o forbid_a fruit_n do_v break_v all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o have_v you_o go_v through_o they_o all_o doubtless_o you_o have_v please_v yourself_o therein_o but_o what_o content_v you_o have_v give_v to_o your_o reader_n in_o it_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o judicious_a to_o consider_v of_o and_o so_o pass_v it_o over_o and_o come_v to_o something_o that_o remain_v page_n 28._o and_o 29._o you_o affirm_v that_o adam_n fall_v the_o very_a same_o day_n that_o he_o be_v create_v and_o the_o ground_n of_o your_o opinion_n be_v psalm_n 49.12_o which_o text_n in_o the_o hebrew_n you_o say_v be_v thus_o read_v adam_n be_v in_o honour_n do_v not_o lodge_v a_o night_n in_o it_o you_o have_v a_o good_a art_n in_o add_v to_o the_o scripture_n as_o i_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o and_o you_o have_v

this_o may_v be_v mind_v both_o for_o the_o first_o adam_n who_o continue_v not_o in_o his_o dignity_n and_o so_o for_o all_o his_o child_n these_o be_v his_o own_o word_n now_o how_o can_v you_o

adam_n fall_n but_o of_o man_n be_v in_o honour_n the_o instability_n thereof_o and_o the_o short_a continuance_n of_o it_o and_o i_o suppose_v you_o know_v adam_n to_o be_v the_o common_a name_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o the_o first_o man_n adam_n can_v be_v here_o mean_v leave_v these_o your_o feign_a devise_n and_o keep_v close_o to_o the_o scripture_n and_o seek_v not_o to_o know_v in_o
