wherefore_o god_n be_v not_o without_o just_a cause_n angry_a for_o that_o the_o ministry_n be_v so_o conterfeat_v and_o it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v lament_v that_o this_o office_n be_v of_o a_o

to_o begin_v a_o new_a matter_n to_o entreat_v of_o for_o hitherto_o he_o have_v prove_v that_o justification_n come_v not_o of_o human_a wisdom_n nor_o philosophy_n nor_o also_o of_o our_o work_n
