therefore_o have_v a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n may_v notwithstanding_o by_o his_o indiscretion_n and_o want_n of_o circumspection_n give_v many_o cause_n of_o just_a suspicion_n of_o

what_o sense_n he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o die_v only_o for_o his_o elect_a and_o to_o procure_v grace_n only_o unto_o the_o elect_a saint_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v behold_v with_o joy_n and_o
