their_o present_a barbarity_n be_v to_o be_v impute_v and_o the_o only_a conclusion_n which_o we_o can_v hence_o due_o make_v be_v the_o acknowledgement_n of_o god_n just_a judgement_n on_o they_o

this_o nation_n at_o this_o time_n can_v it_o either_o now_o or_o in_o future_a age_n be_v reasonable_a hence_o to_o argue_v against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o universal_a grace_n in_o case_n there_o be_v a_o concurrence_n of_o all_o other_o evidence_n for_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o doctrine_n certain_o it_o can_v not_o in_o like_a manner_n than_o it_o can_v be_v reasonable_a to_o argue_v thus_o

that_o because_o the_o sufficiency_n of_o this_o general_a reprobation_n grace_n notwithstanding_o through_o the_o strength_n of_o natural_a corruption_n it_o may_v happen_v to_o prove_v uneffectual_a
