deny_v the_o predestination_n of_o god_n and_o seek_v a_o justification_n by_o free_a will_n and_o by_o deserve_v of_o work_n which_o matter_n you_o do_v both_o understande_v and_o have_v also_o

it_o there_o appear_v manifest_a it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o w._n samuel_n which_o be_v a_o man_n unto_o i_o of_o very_o small_a acquaintance_n but_o a_o preacher_n he_o be_v and_o as_o for_o his_o

neither_o papist_n nor_o pelagian_a nor_o any_o other_o heretic_n either_o old_a or_o new_a have_v write_v or_o maintain_v a_o more_o filthy_a and_o execrable_a say_n for_o it_o be_v the_o flat_a

like_v very_o well_o the_o prayer_n that_o cerberus_n begin_v his_o oration_n withal_o but_o his_o purpose_n in_o pray_v which_o appear_v to_o be_v to_o deceive_v the_o simple_a i_o do_v like_o nothing_o at_o all_o the_o foundation_n of_o his_o friend_n proufe_v of_o that_o he_o charge_v he_o with_o as_o he_o say_v be_v but_o slender_a for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o fault_n in_o the_o print_n as_o every_o man_n may_v see_v that_o will_v read_v but_o two_o verse_n go_v before_o in_o y_z e_z same_o prayer_n and_o six_o immediate_o follow_v and_o that_o the_o indifferent_a reader_n may_v be_v satisfy_v i_o will_v write_v down_o those_o verse_n because_o it_o will_v be_v hard_a for_o man_n to_o find_v the_o book_n wherein_o the_o prayer_n be_v print_v of_o all_o the_o son_n that_o thou_o
