hominem_fw-la peccatum_fw-la vitare_fw-la nòn_n posse_fw-la that_o a_o man_n can_v not_o eschew_v evil_a or_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o commit_v sin_n these_o man_n i_o say_v which_o affirm_v that_o

with_o a_o great_a discretion_n of_o word_n as_o these_o man_n will_v say_v that_o we_o must_v speak_v more_o reverentlie_o of_o the_o matter_n but_o sing_v they_o plain_o hold_v these_o principle_n and_o when_o they_o see_v their_o time_n speak_v plain_o thereof_o themselves_o as_o you_o may_v well_o perceyve_v by_o that_o which_o have_v already_o and_o shall_v yet_o be_v more_o large_o rehearse_v i_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o it_o shall_v not_o of_o all_o man_n be_v plain_o declare_v again_o if_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v plain_o speak_v if_o it_o be_v a_o truth_n that_o traitor_n be_v predestinate_a of_o god_n to_o conspire_v the_o destruction_n of_o their_o prince_n and_o rebel_n predestinate_a of_o god_n to_o make_v insurrection_n against_o their_o soveraines_n if_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o truth_n that_o god_n have_v so_o predestinate_v they_o &_o that_o they_o must_v of_o necessity_n &_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o commit_v such_o wyckednesse_n why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v plain_o speak_v except_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v ashamed_a to_o speak_v the_o truth_n but_o in_o what_o scripture_n be_v that_o write_v or_o be_v it_o not_o rather_o write_v for_o thy_o life_n shame_v not_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n and_o sure_o to_o say_v as_o 4._o it_o be_v i_o see_v not_o well_o how_o any_o man_n can_v speak_v more_o plain_o in_o this_o matter_n than_o they_o themselves_o do_v for_o what_o can_v more_o plain_o be_v speak_v than_o that_o god_n predestination_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o adam_n fall_n and_o that_o cain_n be_v predestinate_a to_o

he_o write_v this_o answer_n to_o his_o friend_n letter_n be_v against_o crowley_n if_o the_o spirit_n of_o love_n have_v lead_v he_o he_o may_v have_v have_v conference_n w_o t_o crowley_n for_o

to_o make_v the_o malice_n of_o cerberus_n so_o know_v to_o all_o man_n that_o he_o shall_v from_o henceforth_o have_v little_a credit_n among_o such_o as_o do_v not_o favour_v the_o error_n of_o our_o new_a pelagian_n for_o answer_v to_o all_o y_fw-es ●_o cerberus_n have_v in_o this_o his_o return_n to_o crowley_n write_v i_o may_v refer_v the_o reader_n to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v

that_o be_v before_o write_v and_o answer_v and_o chiesly_a because_o he_o do_v here_o infer_v more_o plain_o that_o which_o before_o he_o mean_v to_o conclude_v i_o have_v say_v that_o god_n predestination_n be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o adam_n fall_n that_o cain_n be_v predestinate_a to_o slay_v his_o brother_n abel_n and_o that_o the_o most_o wicked_a person_n that_o have_v be_v be_v of_o god_n appoint_v to_o be_v wicked_a even_o as_o they_o be_v for_o the_o first_o i_o refer_v the_o reader_n to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v already_o write_v thereof_o for_o the_o second_o i_o say_v that_o as_o god_n predestinate_v abel_n to_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n in_o suffering_n so_o he_o predestinate_v cain_n to_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o cruel_a persecute_v jew_n &_o other_o that_o have_v do_v &_o shall_v persecute_v christ_n &_o his_o church_n and_o as_o cain_n in_o slea_v his_o brother_n abel_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o cruel_a persecutor_n so_o be_v not_o the_o murder_n evil_a but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o execution_n of_o cain_n wicked_a will_n it_o be_v abominable_a sin_n and_o deserve_v no_o less_o punishment_n at_o god_n hand_n than_o it_o have_v in_o deed_n and_o as_o concern_v the_o power_n of_o cain_n will_n whereby_o he_o consent_v to_o do_v this_o deed_n it_o be_v altogether_o bind_v to_o the_o will_n of_o satan_n by_o the_o sin_n that_o his_o father_n adam_n have_v first_o commit_v &_o be_v not_o deliver_v from_o that_o bondage_n because_o he_o be_v none_o of_o they_o who_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v
