i_o infer_v if_o the_o scripture_n be_v the_o rule_n than_o all_o that_o have_v the_o scripture_n have_v the_o rule_n as_o well_o as_o you_o then_o i_o query_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v there_o be_v so_o many_o different_a persuasion_n when_o you_o have_v all_o but_o one_o rule_n can_v the_o scripture_n have_v any_o more_o true_a meaning_n but_o one_o be_v christ_n divide_v or_o be_v there_o any_o varyablenesse_n with_o god_n but_o if_o you_o can_v own_v that_o every_o one_o that_o have_v the_o scripture_n be_v in_o the_o right_n but_o only_o such_o as_o practice_v as_o you_o be_v persuade_v then_o i_o query_n how_o come_v you_o to_o be_v sure_a than_o other_o see_v they_o plead_v scripture_n to_o justify_v they_o as_o well_o as_o you_o therefore_o it_o follow_v if_o you_o

but_o a_o imagination_n etc._n etc._n thus_o by_o way_n of_o conclusion_n i_o need_v not_o enlarge_v as_o to_o show_v any_o thing_n further_o for_o the_o justification_n of_o daniel_n smith_n in_o
