never_o have_v be_v any_o end_n see_v then_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v once_o appoint_v and_o allow_v this_o rule_n we_o may_v compare_v unto_o it_o neither_o book_n nor_o council_n what_o so_o ever_o they_o be_v for_o if_o since_o the_o time_n of_o the_o apostle_n there_o have_v never_o be_v man_n of_o what_o holiness_n or_o knowledge_n so_o ever_o he_o be_v that_o have_v so_o perfectelye_o and_o well_o write_v and_o teach_v as_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n do_v without_o faylinge_v in_o any_o one_o thing_n ▪_o we_o may_v not_o think_v that_o it_o be_v otherwise_o in_o their_o
