that_o first_o covenant_n for_o i_o perceive_v adam_n sin_v and_o so_o break_v that_o condition_n c._n i_o have_v intimate_v that_o to_o you_o already_o and_o yet_o shall_v far_o enlarge_v on_o it_o upon_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n he_o and_o all_o mankind_n forfeit_v that_o perfect_a light_n and_o perfect_a strength_n and_o become_v very_o defective_a and_o weak_a both_o in_o knowledge_n and_o

and_o why_o shall_v they_o all_o be_v so_o prejudge_v upon_o one_o man_n miscarriage_n c._n many_o reason_n may_v be_v render_v for_o this_o act_n of_o god_n and_o if_o they_o can_v not_o yet_o ought_v not_o his_o wisdom_n to_o be_v arraign_v at_o our_o tribunal_n or_o judge_v by_o we_o now_o this_o be_v a_o act_n of_o his_o wisdom_n more_o than_o of_o distributive_a justice_n it_o be_v

god_n intend_v to_o take_v the_o forfeiture_n of_o that_o first_o covenant_n intend_v withal_o to_o make_v a_o second_o covenant_n which_o shall_v tend_v as_o much_o or_o more_o to_o the_o main_a
