not_o believe_v in_o any_o creature_n or_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o any_o but_o in_o god_n only_o and_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n which_o certain_a heretic_n have_v deny_v it_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o five_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n where_o saint_n peter_n speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n name_v he_o god_n for_o he_o reprehend_v ananias_n and_o

to_o nothing_o david_n say_v all_o thing_n be_v make_v and_o create_v by_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n therefore_o if_o he_o make_v all_o thing_n he_o be_v very_o god_n for_o this_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n alone_o to_o make_v &_o to_o create_v thing_n that_o argument_n of_o paul_n in_o the_o 1._o cor._n 2._o chap._n do_v sufficient_o prove_v this_o matter_n unto_o we_o where_o he_o say_v that_o this_o spirit_n search_v all_o thing_n yea_o the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n and_o that_o no_o man_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n now_o if_o the_o
