the_o case_n of_o obedience_n &_o reformation_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n for_o the_o understanding_n to_o be_v well_o enlighten_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o religion_n and_o yet_o the_o affection_n to_o remain_v cold_a and_o lumpish_a without_o any_o love_n to_o religion_n so_o that_o a_o man_n may_v soon_o run_v through_o the_o whole_a circle_n of_o knowledge_n than_o set_v

as_o it_o be_v season_v the_o whole_a lump_n of_o knowledge_n the_o small_a quantity_n of_o hearty_a affection_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o religion_n god_n respect_v not_o how_o much_o but_o how_o
