it_o never_o wrought_v to_o the_o pardon_n of_o any_o one_o sin_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o look_v upon_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o do_v not_o look_v to_o the_o right_a way_n of_o the_o

for_o there_o be_v none_o but_o in_o a_o natural_a way_n know_v that_o god_n be_v a_o merciful_a god_n but_o the_o main_a ground_n of_o justification_n or_o of_o justify_v faith_n be_v the_o free_a

thus_o far_o a_o heathen_a may_v go_v but_o the_o ground_n and_o bottom_n of_o faith_n be_v not_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o general_n but_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o and_o through_o a_o
