about_o the_o regality_n in_o the_o bottom_n the_o jesuit_n have_v not_o abandon_v their_o theology_n they_o be_v as_o zealous_a partisan_n of_o the_o holy_a see_v as_o they_o have_v ever_o be_v but_o

the_o italian_a divinity_n be_v the_o divinity_n of_o the_o cloister_n thus_o the_o king_n may_v reckon_v that_o all_o the_o monk_n look_v upon_o he_o as_o the_o pope_n subject_n as_o be_v liable_a to_o be_v excommunicate_v his_o kingdom_n put_v under_o a_o ecclesiastical_a censure_n his_o subject_n dispense_v and_o release_v from_o the_o oath_n of_o fidelity_n and_o his_o state_n give_v by_o
