i_o answer_v consider_v some_o of_o thy_o dark_a confuse_a doctrine_n in_o the_o 9_o pag._n thou_o assert_n that_o the_o law_n or_o first_o covenant_n put_v man_n upon_o do_v without_o give_v grace_n which_o be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v his_o work_n acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o so_o man_n can_v give_v no_o perfect_a obedience_n to_o this_o law_n in_o this_o question_n thou_o affirm_v the_o law_n by_o which_o the_o gentile_n do_v by_o nature_n the_o thng_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n to_o be_v a_o sufficient_a principle_n give_v to_o perform_v obedience_n because_o a_o insufficient_a

they_o the_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o law_n thus_o that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o they_o god_n have_v thus_o show_v it_o to_o they_o they_o be_v leave_v without_o

of_o the_o law_n be_v write_v in_o their_o heart_n 5._o how_o can_v they_o clear_o see_v the_o invisible_a thing_n of_o god_n but_o by_o christ_n the_o son_n see_v it_o be_v say_v none_o know_v the_o
