all_o the_o damnable_a heretic_n in_o the_o world_n do_v or_o may_v show_v that_o man_n open_v a_o door_n to_o damnable_a heretic_n but_o you_o pretend_v to_o be_v a_o ambassador_n of_o christ_n and_o

argument_n he_o who_o deny_v the_o bible_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n say_v that_o to_o assert_v scripture_n to_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v one_o of_o the_o deceitful_a imagination_n
