penitent_a soul_n which_o depart_v this_o life_n before_o they_o have_v satisfy_v for_o their_o sin_n be_v purge_v by_o the_o punishment_n of_o purgatory_n after_o death_n and_o be_v thus_o purge_v

have_v you_o further_a to_o observe_v and_o weigh_v the_o word_n
satisfaction_n which_o they_o impose_v on_o penitent_n be_v not_o only_o as_o to_o the_o guard_n of_o a_o new_a life_n or_o as_o a_o medicine_n of_o infirmity_n but_o also_o as_o in_o revenge_n and_o
