Parker; in an illogicall vindication, wherein the necessity of sins remaining in the best saints as long as they live, and the impossibility of perfect obedience to the law of God, is ignorantly and perversly avouched to to [sic] be the orthodox Protestant doctrine; by one who subscribeth his name John Tendring. ...

we_o affirm_v both_o cause_n water_n and_o the_o spirit_n concur_v as_o partial_a requisite_a cause_n to_o the_o effect_n second_o that_o both_o cause_n therefore_o must_v be_v spiritual_a because_o

of_o water_n as_o the_o true_a and_o real_a partial_a coworking_a cause_n out_o of_o which_o a_o man_n must_v be_v bear_v again_o therefore_o the_o say_v elementary_a water_n be_v not_o mean_v
