have_v not_o learn_v this_o point_n of_o denial_n and_o so_o in_o truth_n keep_v themselves_o from_o be_v find_v in_o christ_n be_v enemy_n to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o righteousness_n of_o

make_v it_o to_o god_n abominable_a but_o in_o the_o second_o place_n let_v we_o learn_v this_o point_n ever_o to_o renounce_v all_o confidence_n and_o conceit_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o the_o lord_n

of_o the_o truth_n how_o can_v it_o be_v expect_v that_o they_o shall_v part_v with_o life_n itself_o for_o his_o sake_n use_v 2_o it_o must_v admonish_v we_o by_o serious_a meditation_n to_o arm_v
