the_o doctrine_n and_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o depend_v holly_n of_o it_o and_o when_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v ꝓuide_v so_o for_o his_o church_n that_o he_o will_v not_o burden_n it_o

the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n baptism_n the_o token_n of_o regeneration_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o acceptable_a remembrance_n of_o the_o lord_n death_n and_o of_o our_o redemption_n and_o
