unto_o slaughter_n from_o pleasure_n and_o pastime_n worldly_a unto_o pain_n and_o perdition_n eternal_o consider_v therefore_o how_o god_n child_n learn_v by_o god_n word_n write_v in_o holy_a

that_o thereby_o god_n spirit_n do_v put_v good_a law_n into_o their_o mind_n and_o write_v they_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o then_o they_o feel_v their_o mind_n illuminate_v with_o the_o truth_n and_o they_o heart_n inflame_v with_o the_o sincerity_n and_o simplicity_n of_o god_n word_n may_v bold_o and_o comfortable_o say_v that_o god_n of_o his_o own_o good_a will_n have_v beget_v we_o by_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n we_o be_v now_o bear_v not_o of_o blood_n not_o of_o the_o will_n of_o flesh_n nor_o of_o the_o will_n of_o man_n but_o of_o god_n we_o be_v now_o not_o in_o the_o flesh_n but_o in_o the_o spirit_n because_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o us._n so_o then_o we_o be_v now_o debtor_n not_o unto_o the_o flesh_n too_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n but_o unto_o the_o

child_n use_v the_o hear_n read_v preach_v and_o meditation_n of_o god_n word_n not_o to_o feed_v but_o to_o kill_v their_o carnal_a lust_n all_o other_o whether_o that_o they_o do_v utter_o refuse_v or_o else_o accept_v and_o use_v the_o word_n of_o god_n yet_o they_o do_v but_o feed_v carnal_a affection_n through_o devilish_a illusion_n either_o with_o worldly_a vanity_n and_o fleshe_o lust_n evident_o or_o else_o with_o some_o abuse_n of_o god_n word_n colourable_o and_o corrupt_o of_o this_o matter_n do_v i_o write_v a_o little_a book_n be_v at_o geneva_n in_o the_o time_n of_o queen_n
