&_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o creature_n be_v three_o the_o first_o be_v in_o the_o understanding_n because_o god_n from_o all_o eternity_n do_v most_o perfect_o understand_v and_o behold_v all_o

either_o immediate_o by_o god_n or_o by_o instrument_n and_o mean_n sometime_o good_a sometime_o bad_a such_o as_o it_o best_o please_v god_n to_o use_v and_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n without_o the_o eternal_a and_o immutable_a counsel_n of_o god_n the_o third_o be_v both_o in_o the_o understanding_n and_o also_o in_o the_o will_n because_o god_n as_o he_o know_v all_o thing_n immutable_o so_o also_o he_o have_v decree_v from_o everlasting_a &_o will_v immutable_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v as_o they_o be_v good_a and_o permit_v they_o as_o they_o be_v sin_n but_o as_o in_o creature_n the_o knowledge_n &_o judgement_n of_o thing_n be_v mutable_a so_o also_o be_v their_o will_n 6_o this_o liberty_n in_o man_n be_v lose_v by_o sin_n but_o begin_v to_o

8_o yet_o because_o the_o creature_n persi_v in_o obedience_n can_v be_v but_o by_o confirmation_n from_o god_n man_n will_n do_v yield_v unto_o temptation_n in_o deed_n willing_o but_o withal_o
