man_n understanding_n or_o perverseness_n in_o their_o will_n that_o apostolical_a commission_n which_o be_v intend_v for_o the_o continuance_n as_o well_o as_o first_o plant_v of_o the_o gospel_n

crave_v leave_n to_o express_v my_o wonder_n that_o these_o people_n who_o be_v thus_o inspire_v with_o such_o a_o zeal_n for_o sermon_n can_v yet_o be_v so_o cool_a and_o careless_a so_o perfect_o

the_o condition_n of_o our_o soul_n do_v as_o much_o nay_o more_o require_v it_o suppose_v a_o sound_a knowledge_n in_o fundamental_o than_o it_o do_v the_o hear_n of_o sermon_n what_o be_v it_o therefore_o that_o make_v this_o difference_n true_a grace_n in_o the_o heart_n it_o can_v be_v that_o you_o know_v be_v regular_a in_o its_o motion_n and_o have_v a_o equal_a respect_n to_o all_o

which_o he_o be_v still_o ready_a to_o seal_v and_o confirm_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o be_v this_o our_o requital_n of_o so_o glorious_a a_o majesty_n thus_o
