to_o do_v thing_n impossible_a man_n nature_n be_v destroy_v for_o man_n be_v a_o free_a creature_n second_o the_o command_n imply_v a_o absurdity_n and_o impossibility_n to_o bid_v a_o man_n do_v

it_o be_v absurd_a to_o bid_v he_o come_v out_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v answ._n that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o external_a bind_n and_o the_o bond_n wherewith_o a_o man_n be_v fetter_v by_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o external_a impediment_n which_o a_o man_n can_v remove_v when_o he_o be_v fetter_v in_o the_o well_o but_o there_o be_v no_o external_a impediment_n when_o as_o

they_o can_v come_v there_o be_v liberty_n when_o as_o a_o man_n have_v eligibile_fw-la or_o non_fw-la eligibile_fw-la when_o he_o have_v a_o thing_n in_o his_o own_o choice_n when_o there_o be_v no_o impediment_n when_o he_o may_v argue_v both_o way_n if_o a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o perverseness_n of_o his_o nature_n do_v it_o not_o it_o be_v not_o compulsory_a but_o free_a a_o beast_n action_n be_v free_a because_o he_o can_v reason_v on_o both_o side_n but_o man_n when_o he_o consider_v argument_n on_o both_o side_n when_o he_o can_v say_v do_v not_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n but_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n when_o he_o can_v conceive_v argument_n on_o both_o side_n he_o be_v free_a there_o be_v no_o such_o external_a impediment_n in_o he_o as_o to_o bid_v one_o in_o darkness_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n of_o the_o light_n or_o one_o bind_v hand_n and_o foot_n in_o a_o pit_n to_o come_v out_o since_o the_o chief_a impediment_n here_o be_v in_o the_o deprave_a will_n of_o man_n which_o

they_o pray_v they_o read_v but_o they_o turn_v it_o not_o into_o flesh_n and_o blood_n because_o there_o be_v no_o life_n in_o they_o they_o be_v not_o the_o strong_a for_o hear_v or_o any_o thing_n
