and_o so_o of_o that_o eternal_a reward_n of_o those_o work_n which_o be_v indeed_o good_a &_o please_v god_n second_o we_o answer_v that_o these_o be_v sometime_o recompense_v with_o temporal_a reward_n but_o never_o with_o eternal_a three_o that_o they_o be_v recompense_v of_o god_n with_o these_o reward_n not_o as_o that_o he_o simple_o like_v of_o they_o or_o so_o acknowledge_v they_o for_o good_a that_o he_o do_v not_o withal_o repute_v they_o for_o evil_a but_o that_o he_o may_v invite_v by_o these_o reward_v other_o aswell_o unbeliever_n as_o believer_n to_o keep_v and_o

yea_o even_o among_o the_o wicked_a &_o hypocrite_n four_o those_o reward_n be_v rather_o a_o diminish_n and_o mitigation_n of_o their_o punishment_n than_o any_o reward_n because_o they_o make_v
