to_o beg_v pardon_n for_o it_o for_o we_o be_v here_o to_o pray_v for_o all_o sin_n pardon_v as_o we_o forgive_v our_o debtor_n as_o hear_v be_v a_o note_n of_o similitude_n not_o of_o equality_n quest_n 1._o whether_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o forgive_v every_o one_o that_o owe_v we_o any_o thing_n answ_n we_o be_v certain_o bind_v to_o pardon_v they_o if_o they_o owe_v we_o as_o we_o owe_v god_n that_o be_v so_o as_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o pay_v 2._o we_o be_v to_o forgive_v all_o man_n their_o injury_n not_o their_o debt_n quest._n 2._o whether_o we_o be_v bind_v to_o forgive_v man_n

for_o my_o farthing_n 2._o because_o we_o desire_v god_n who_o be_v so_o much_o above_o to_o forgive_v we_o matth._n 18._o for_o how_o can_v we_o expect_v that_o god_n shall_v forgive_v we_o a_o
