contradictory_n to_o the_o doctrine_n we_o be_v teach_v and_o to_o the_o receive_a notion_n of_o indulgence_n among_o catholic_n who_o be_v so_o far_o from_o presume_v upon_o leave_n to_o sin_n upon_o the_o grant_n of_o indulgence_n that_o they_o do_v think_v that_o any_o one_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a can_v be_v forgive_v by_o a_o indulgence_n no_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o no_o sin_n be_v forgive_v even_o in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o confession_n without_o a_o sincere_a repentance_n and_o as_o for_o indulgence_n they_o be_v only_o for_o the_o relaxation_n of_o the_o canonical_a

as_o the_o doctor_n have_v it_o for_o many_o thousand_o year_n to_o come_v he_o must_v soon_o conclude_v that_o this_o can_v not_o be_v giving_z leave_v to_o sin_n for_o so_o long_a time_n to_o come_v which_o so_o far_o exceed_v the_o term_n of_o man_n life_n but_o only_o the_o release_v of_o penance_n which_o be_v assign_v in_o proportion_n to_o the_o sin_n for_o some_o sin_n three_o year_n penance_n for_o other_o five_o for_o other_o seven_o may_v with_o some_o careless_a christian_n amount_v to_o that_o degree_n that_o for_o fifty_o year_n of_o life_n they_o may_v possible_o have_v five_o thousand_o year_n penalty_n due_a to_o their_o sin_n this_o be_v it_o then_o we_o understand_v by_o indulgence_n or_o pardon_n not_o a_o leave_n or_o liberty_n to_o sin_n nay_o not_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n but_o only_o a_o discharge_n from_o the_o canonical_a penance_n which_o be_v very_o far_o from_o what_o the_o doctor_n insinuate_v into_o his_o auditory_a which_o as_o
