opinion_n of_o their_o own_o sufficiency_n which_o make_v a_o great_a many_o to_o gainsay_v this_o doctrine_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o paul_n of_o old_a call_v it_o the_o foolishness_n of_o

to_o the_o recovery_n of_o three_o great_a evil_n which_o be_v very_a prevail_a and_o very_o universal_a in_o these_o our_o time_n 1_o wilfulness_n 2_o carelessness_n 3_o unskilfulness_n the_o first_o
