shall_v propound_v and_o maintain_v we_o but_o this_o task_n i_o have_v already_o perform_v in_o handle_v the_o three_o question_n of_o this_o controversy_n concern_v the_o matter_n of_o our_o justification_n where_o among_o many_o other_o argument_n prove_v that_o we_o be_v not_o justify_v by_o any_o righteousness_n inherent_a in_o we_o or_o perform_v by_o we_o but_o only_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v out_o of_o we_o in_o he_o we_o use_v this_o 5._o for_o one_o by_o what_o righteousness_n we_o be_v justify_v the_o law_n be_v satisfy_v by_o christ_n righteousness_n alone_o the_o law_n be_v satisfy_v and_o not_o by_o that_o which_o be_v inherent_a in_o we_o or_o perform_v by_o we_o and_o this_o assumption_n we_o prove_v because_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o sati_fw-la fie_o the_o law_n neither_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o commandment_n it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o flesh_n impossible_a unto_o we_o nor_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o penalty_n which_o can_v be_v satisfy_v by_o we_o but_o with_o endless_a torment_n so_o that_o as_o i_o say_v before_o all_o this_o discourse_n of_o the_o possibility_n of_o the_o law_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o defence_n against_o a_o piece_n of_o one_o of_o our_o argument_n now_o i_o shall_v follow_v he_o to_o the_o second_o point_n which_o he_o propound_v 4._o to_o prove_v that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o righteous_a be_v simple_o and_o absolute_o just_a and_o after_o their_o manner_n perfect_a which_o may_v also_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o answer_n to_o another_o piece_n of_o our_o argument_n for_o that_o righteousness_n by_o which_o we_o be_v justify_v be_v perfect_a such_o only_a be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v out_o of_o we_o in_o he_o such_o be_v not_o that_o which_o be_v inherent_a in_o we_o as_o the_o habitual_a or_o perform_v by_o we_o as_o the_o actual_a bellarmine_n therefore_o in_o opposition_n to_o that_o breach_n concern_v perfect_a actual_a righteousness_n propound_v the_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n but_o that_o our_o best_a righteousness_n be_v unperfect_a and_o stain_v with_o the_o flesh_n i_o have_v full_o prove_v before_o and_o have_v answer_v all_o the_o argument_n which_o bellarmine_n produce_v here_o in_o my_o four_o 4._o book_n whereunto_o i_o refer_v the_o reader_n here_o only_o i_o signify_v again_o that_o bellarmine_n fall_v very_o

now_o seem_v to_o prove_v this_o that_o the_o good_a work_n of_o the_o righteous_a be_v true_o good_a which_o we_o deny_v not_o §_o xvii_o yes_o but_o you_o protestant_n will_v they_o say_v do_v

in_o do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a sin_v according_a to_o that_o eccl._n 7._o 20._o we_o do_v confess_v that_o the_o duty_n which_o the_o faithful_a perform_v be_v good_a work_n and_o so_o call_v
