unto_o holiness_n for_o when_o you_o be_v servant_n to_o sin_n you_o be_v free_a from_o righteousness_n therefore_o which_o though_o it_o be_v not_o express_v yet_o it_o be_v imply_v proportionable_o now_o when_o you_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o righteousness_n you_o shall_v be_v free_a from_o sin_n upon_o this_o threefold_a consideration_n such_o as_o be_v make_v free_a from_o the_o law_n of_o

i_o shall_v speak_v a_o few_o word_n unto_o where_o i_o will_v be_v very_o earnest_a with_o you_o who_o have_v pass_v under_o the_o regenerate_a work_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o take_v heed_n even_o of_o the_o actual_a and_o partial_a dominion_n of_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o this_o admonition_n for_o though_o upon_o regeneration_n you_o be_v secure_v from_o its_o habitual_a
