to_o the_o punishment_n of_o david_n and_o the_o treason_n of_o judas_n to_o the_o freedom_n of_o mankind_n also_o though_o he_o often_o punish_v sin_n by_o sin_n and_o blind_a and_o harden_v those_o common_o at_o last_o who_o with_o see_v eye_n will_v yet_o be_v blind_a as_o former_o he_o do_v pharaoh_n yet_o nevertheless_o he_o of_o himself_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o sin_n much_o less_o do_v he_o provoke_v or_o drive_v any_o man_n thereunto_o but_o that_o the_o precedent_n work_v cause_n of_o all_o sin_n which_o go_v before_o be_v only_o and_o alone_o the_o free_a and_o unforced_a will_n of_o wicked_a angel_n and_o man_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o god_n have_v adjudge_v the_o fall_v angel_n to_o everlasting_a fire_n without_o any_o grace_n or_o mercy_n to_o terrify_v we_o thereby_o that_o we_o make_v not_o a_o jest_n of_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n against_o sin_n we_o believe_v further_o that_o god_n have_v indeed_o just_a cause_n and_o power_n also_o to_o push_v down_o the_o fall_v man_n into_o everlasting_a hellish_a fire_n without_o any_o grace_n or_o mercy_n but_o he_o have_v not_o do_v it_o but_o have_v offer_v grace_n again_o to_o man_n and_o that_o so_o he_o
