life_n we_o must_v be_v bear_v again_o &_o sanctify_v or_o make_v holy_a as_o appertain_v to_o y_z e_z children_z of_z y_z e_z most_o holy_a god_n now_o this_o new_a birth_n and_o sanctification_n the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v in_o us._n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n because_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v sanctify_v or_o hallow_v be_v sanctify_v or_o make_v holy_a by_o he_o wherefore_o when_o the_o holy_a goost_n be_v not_o in_o man_n than_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v holy_a although_o he_o do_v all_o the_o good_a work_n under_o y_o e_o sun_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n saint_n paul_n write_v to_o the_o roman_n i._o do_v call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o spirit_n that_o make_v

the_o holy_a goost_n work_v by_o this_o word_n on_o this_o fashion_n first_o he_o that_o beleve_v y_fw-mi e_z gospel_n and_o receave_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n be_v make_v the_o son_n of_o god_n

will_v as_o brief_o as_o i_o can_v repete_fw-la theym_n again_o unto_o you_o first_o of_o all_o y_z e_z holy_a ghost_n provoke_v &_o stir_v up_o man_n to_o preach_v god_n word_n than_o he_o move_v

bear_v and_o make_v again_o and_o be_v bicome_a the_o child_n of_o god_n than_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v dwell_v in_o we_o and_o make_v we_o holy_a &_o godly_a that_o we_o may_v be_v y_z e_z temple_n of_o god_n in_o who_o god_n may_v dwell_v and_o inhabit_v also_o this_o holy_a ghost_n do_v daily_o more_o and_o more_o increase_v and_o establyshe_a our_o faith_n that_o we_o like_v most_o love_a

be_v their_o true_a and_o faithful_a subject_n of_o their_o realm_n and_o every_o king_n geve_v commandment_n unto_o his_o subject_n &_o govern_v they_o in_o such_o wise_n that_o they_o do_v not_o
