or_o part_n of_o that_o which_o may_v proceed_v from_o a_o sinner_n although_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o the_o good_a life_n of_o a_o faithful_a person_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n but_o not_o to_o

in_o any_o part_n or_o piece_n it_o follow_v that_o he_o do_v not_o quit_v or_o forgeve_v we_o all_o but_o the_o rest_n which_o remain_v wherefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o in_o stead_n of_o the_o true_a god_n who_o be_v perfect_o ryghteous_a and_o perfect_o merciful_a in_o jesus_n christ_n only_o as_o we_o have_v declare_v they_o worship_v a_o dream_n and_o fantasy_n of_o their_o own_o bead_n
