be_v ever_o a_o necessary_a instruction_n and_o belief_n of_o certain_a point_n have_v by_o word_n of_o mouth_n and_o tradition_n before_o man_n come_v to_o the_o scripture_n which_o can_v not_o

the_o eternal_a word_n of_o the_o father_n and_o goodness_n to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n because_o he_o be_v the_o love_n of_o they_o both_o yet_o indeed_o these_o and_o all_o other_o outward_a action_n and_o attribute_n of_o god_n be_v common_a to_o all_o the_o person_n of_o the_o godhead_n q._n in_o what_o article_n do_v you_o learn_v to_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o son_n who_o have_v redeem_a
