unto_o slaughter_n from_o pleasure_n and_o pastime_n worldly_a unto_o pain_n and_o perdition_n eternal_o consider_v therefore_o how_o god_n child_n learn_v by_o god_n word_n write_v in_o holy_a

that_o thereby_o god_n spirit_n do_v put_v good_a law_n into_o their_o mind_n and_o write_v they_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o then_o they_o feel_v their_o mind_n illuminate_v with_o the_o truth_n and_o they_o heart_n inflame_v with_o the_o sincerity_n and_o simplicity_n of_o god_n word_n may_v bold_o and_o comfortable_o say_v that_o god_n of_o his_o own_o good_a will_n have_v beget_v we_o by_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n we_o be_v now_o bear_v not_o of_o blood_n not_o of_o the_o will_n of_o flesh_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n we_o be_v now_o not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n because_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o us._n so_o then_o we_o be_v now_o debtor_n not_o unto_o the_o flesh_n too_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o unto_o the_o
