ruffiny_n a_o ancient_a writer_n say_v they_o be_v impudent_a that_o think_v otherwise_o only_a cornelius_n a_o lapide_fw-la a_o learned_a jesuit_n with_o bellarmine_n and_o deny_v it_o because_o forsooth_o they_o allege_v this_o place_n of_o act_n to_o prove_v their_o church_n be_v never_o without_o prophet_n that_o can_v foretell_v thing_n to_o come_v but_o the_o other_o part_n of_o this_o

you_o to_o take_v heed_n ere_o you_o be_v aware_a lest_o you_o slide_v into_o the_o tent_n of_o the_o papist_n while_o you_o thus_o plead_v for_o a_o text_n and_o the_o exposition_n thereof_o to_o

prove_v nothing_o to_o this_o purpose_n or_o if_o they_o do_v yet_o they_o do_v not_o exclude_v humane_a learning_n the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n meaning_n in_o that_o place_n of_o 1_o cor._n

for_o as_o no_o man_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o man_n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n which_o be_v in_o he_o so_o nothing_o can_v reveal_v god_n love_n to_o the_o soul_n concern_v predestination_n
