his_o leiturgy_n and_o ceremony_n be_v only_o civil_a carnal_a immunity_n and_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o legal_a sacrifice_n be_v very_o apt_a and_o commodious_a to_o shadow_v forth_o the_o oblation_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n yet_o this_o use_n of_o they_o be_v so_o mystical_a and_o reserve_v so_o impossible_a to_o be_v collect_v out_o of_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o law_n that_o without_o a_o special_a revelation_n from_o god_n the_o eye_n of_o the_o israelite_n be_v too_o weak_a to_o serve_v they_o to_o pierce_v through_o those_o dark_a cloud_n and_o shadow_n and_o to_o carry_v their_o observation_n to_o the_o substance_n so_o that_o i_o conceive_v those_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o law_n in_o this_o respect_n be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o beneficial_a to_o we_o

it_o can_v show_v he_o no_o refuge_n no_o sanctuary_n to_o fly_v unto_o nothing_o will_v remain_v unto_o such_o a_o person_n but_o a_o certain_a fearful_a look_v for_o of_o judgement_n and_o fiery_a

his_o writing_n shall_v purposely_o signify_v the_o bless_a estate_n of_o glorify_a saint_n or_o woe_n of_o the_o damn_a for_o then_o st._n paul_n argument_n will_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o

which_o we_o hope_v to_o be_v partaker_n of_o they_o namely_o by_o perform_v the_o substance_n of_o those_o duty_n which_o be_v clear_o deliver_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o gospel_n and_o may_v be_v

by_o they_o indeed_o those_o who_o be_v content_a to_o live_v among_o the_o jew_n and_o enjoy_v their_o privilege_n and_o immunity_n be_v bind_v to_o undergo_v the_o burden_n and_o costliness_n of_o the_o offering_n and_o sacrifice_n which_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v be_v so_o great_a that_o they_o be_v both_o to_o themselves_o and_o

from_o the_o pope_n christ_n vicar_n on_o earth_n and_o successor_n to_o s._n peter_n from_o the_o particular_a diocese_n in_o which_o they_o receive_v baptism_n from_o the_o country_n or_o nation_n
