of_o god_n to_o be_v short_a like_a as_o abraham_n have_v no_o regard_n but_o of_o god_n mere_a mercy_n so_o god_n have_v no_o regard_n but_o only_o of_o abraham_n faith_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n

for_o us._n 45._o and_o in_o very_a deed_n the_o prophet_n esay_n show_v how_o he_o bear_v our_o burden_n namely_o that_o he_o feel_v the_o pain_n of_o death_n and_o that_o the_o father_n be_v fain_o

shall_v bear_v his_o own_o burden_n the_o answer_n thereto_o be_v easy_a when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v too_o we_o of_o god_n justice_n it_o say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v recompense_v

that_o in_o admonish_v our_o neighbour_n with_o a_o gentle_a and_o meeld_v spirit_n and_o be_v also_o humble_a &_o mâ—ke_v ourselves_o without_o presume_v any_o thing_n upon_o ourselves_o we_o must_v
