in_o goodness_n as_o come_v near_o unto_o the_o life_n of_o god_n here_o than_o the_o endeavour_n tend_v to_o the_o advancement_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v seek_v out_o and_o rank_v according_a

knowledge_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n unto_o the_o matter_n of_o harmlesness_n and_o blameless_a conversation_n belong_v the_o endeavour_n of_o peaceableness_n and_o of_o become_v all_o thing_n unto_o all_o man_n in_o that_o which_o be_v lawful_a as_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o he_o do_v 1_o cor._n 9_o 19_o 24._o the_o endeavour_n of_o peaceableness_n be_v a_o study_n

5._o 9_o thus_o than_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o the_o endeavour_n tend_v to_o take_v away_o offence_n and_o scandal_n from_o among_o christian_n and_o tend_v to_o cause_v they_o avoid_v strife_n
