be_v our_o kinsfolk_n according_a to_o creation_n but_o when_o that_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o be_v so_o diffusive_a as_o that_o it_o lead_v we_o forth_o to_o succour_v those_o who_o srand_n in_o need_n of_o our_o help_n than_o we_o act_v as_o ourselves_o and_o like_o rational_a creature_n it_o be_v god_n that_o create_v i_o and_o why_o do_v he_o create_v i_o but_o that_o i_o shall_v

but_o second_o the_o end_n of_o my_o creation_n be_v not_o all_o by_o which_o i_o be_o induce_v to_o concern_v myself_o thus_o with_o you_o but_o likewise_o the_o end_n of_o my_o redemption_n

which_o he_o have_v invest_v we_o with_o and_o thereby_o forfeit_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o so_o become_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n but_o now_o jesus_n christ_n that_o immaculate_a and_o
