if_o a_o angel_n from_o heaven_n shall_v come_v and_o preach_v unto_o we_o contrary_a to_o what_o we_o have_v receive_v anathema_n sir_n but_o yet_o to_o give_v scope_n to_o a_o more_o full_a and_o

of_o our_o lord_n be_v not_o shorten_v nor_o his_o power_n abridge_v yet_o say_v i_o conformable_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o holy_a church_n as_o afterward_o shall_v be_v prove_v that_o this_o can_v be_v no_o assurance_n or_o security_n unto_o other_o who_o be_v not_o partaker_n of_o the_o say_a vision_n and_o revelation_n to_o believe_v that_o doctrine_n because_o what_o be_v of_o divine_a authority_n unto_o one_o be_v but_o of_o humane_a and_o sallible_a authority_n unto_o another_o for_o say_v that_o peter_n know_v a_o thing_n to_o come_v by_o certain_a &_o divine_a revelation_n yet_o the_o same_o shall_v be_v to_o patrick_n but_o only_o a_o humane_a relation_n receive_v from_o the_o lip_n of_o peter_n a_o mortal_a man_n subject_n to_o error_n and_o mistake_v to_o deceive_v and_o to_o be_v deceive_v and_o be_v but_o in_o via_fw-la &_o none_o in_o termine_n peccable_a in_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n and_o therefore_o we_o see_v the_o church_n who_o wisdom_n be_v from_o the_o
