never_o be_v more_o just_a and_o innocent_a than_o pilate_n but_o this_o be_v a_o marvel_n that_o these_o good_a and_o religious_a parishioner_n at_o easter_n time_n do_v seek_v some_o by_o chapel_n

that_o the_o supper_n be_v never_o better_o celebrate_v nor_o more_o devout_o then_o when_o the_o disciple_n go_v into_o some_o secret_a place_n to_o sly_a the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o enemy_n but_o

rather_o to_o dissemble_v the_o matter_n do_v not_o that_o office_n as_o a_o christian_a but_o as_o a_o priest_n of_o the_o popish_a profession_n and_o in_o this_o they_o suppose_v they_o have_v a_o
