he_o be_v not_o regenerate_v and_o be_v yet_o without_o the_o true_a light_n of_o god_n most_o holy_a spirit_n for_o in_o another_o place_n the_o apostle_n say_v we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o think_v

behold_v the_o sun_n &_o the_o beam_n that_o come_v from_o it_o &_o then_o the_o heat_n that_o proceed_v from_o they_o both_o as_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o head-spring_n of_o the_o light_n and_o the_o

this_o parable_n of_o the_o sun_n praxeam_fw-la do_v tertullian_n use_v who_o word_n which_o do_v also_o contain_v other_o similitude_n i_o will_v not_o be_v gréeve_v to_o recite_v unto_o you_o i_o
