my_o text_n have_v narrow_v i_o up_o into_o too_o small_a a_o room_n for_o such_o a_o design_n but_o only_o to_o speak_v of_o offence_n as_o the_o same_o have_v a_o influence_n upon_o the_o world_n

the_o place_n yield_v for_o paul_n have_v vers_fw-la 19_o lay_v down_o this_o as_o a_o argument_n why_o a_o believer_n can_v be_v justify_v by_o the_o law_n because_o he_o be_v dead_a to_o it_o that_o he_o may_v give_v a_o reason_n of_o this_o likewise_o why_o a_o believer_n be_v dead_a to_o the_o law_n or_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o he_o glide_v off_o from_o the_o main_a argument_n of_o
