that_o that_o the_o soul_n stand_v on_o must_v stand_v itself_o now_o nothing_o have_v a_o firm_a consistence_n but_o that_o which_o be_v divine_a which_o i_o prove_v thus_o there_o be_v no_o creature_n but_o though_o it_o be_v true_a and_o good_a yet_o it_o be_v changeable_o true_a and_o may_v be_v otherwise_o then_o it_o be_v and_o yet_o be_v a_o creature_n still_o and_o a_o good_a

it_o be_v a_o old_a rule_n falsehood_n can_v be_v under_o faith_n because_o faith_n must_v lie_v upon_o truth_n infallible_a and_o immutable_a truth_n and_o who_o be_v so_o but_o god_n and_o what_o

than_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n can_v be_v for_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n be_v therefore_o infallible_a and_o true_a because_o the_o word_n of_o god_n say_v so_o that_o he_o
