further_a proof_n that_o no_o man_n by_o his_o own_o natural_a reach_n of_o wit_n and_o understanding_n can_v judge_v of_o the_o virtue_n and_o quality_n of_o faith_n but_o only_o such_o as_o be_v

neither_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o outward_a sense_n of_o their_o body_n nor_o yet_o by_o the_o force_n &_o power_n of_o their_o soul_n but_o be_v altogether_o like_a unto_o the_o cock_n whereof_o the_o

and_o this_o faith_n be_v also_o in_o some_o sort_n worthy_a of_o due_a praise_n and_o there_o be_v a_o temporary_a faith_n when_o some_o do_v believe_v for_o a_o time_n as_o our_o saviour_n say_v nothing_o 13.21_o mat._n 13.21_o worthy_a to_o be_v commend_v but_o be_v like_a unto_o that_o faith_n whereof_o saint_n james_n speak_v that_o be_v dead_a in_o itself_o to_o speak_v nothing_o 2.17_o

which_o i_o mind_n to_o speak_v of_o be_v supernatural_a divine_a and_o heavenly_a far_o more_o glorious_a and_o excellent_a then_o can_v be_v comprehend_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v by_o the_o
