that_o be_v between_o the_o justification_n and_o sanctification_n of_o a_o christian_a man._n m._n sing_v then_o that_o man_n be_v so_o reform_v by_o the_o mean_a of_o faith_n thou_o will_v then_o

if_o it_o be_v a_o work_n whereby_o thy_o neighbour_n receive_v any_o comfort_n or_o help_v in_o his_o person_n it_o be_v then_o so_o much_o the_o more_o profitable_a wherefore_o albeit_o that_o the_o
