of_o the_o church_n but_o because_o of_o the_o testimony_n and_o persuasion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o doctrine_n contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n proceed_v

wherefore_o we_o do_v for_o this_o cause_n allow_v of_o those_o three_o creed_n namely_o the_o apostle_n the_o nicene_n and_o athanasius_n his_o creed_n because_o they_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o

they_o through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o we_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o wisdom_n and_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n take_v upon_o he_o our_o nature_n so_o that_o he_o be_v

and_o unite_v yet_o nevertheless_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n that_o each_o nature_n do_v retain_v its_o distinct_a property_n so_o that_o even_o as_o in_o this_o divine_a conjunction_n the_o divine_a
