not_o but_o that_o a_o catholic_a may_v lose_v his_o faith_n but_o with_o great_a difficulty_n and_o more_o excess_n of_o malice_n as_o it_o befall_v not_o long_o ago_o to_o a_o person_n of_o no_o

that_o he_o which_o once_o be_v thorough_o ground_v in_o the_o catholic_a religion_n can_v not_o possible_o but_o with_o extreme_a malignity_n alter_v his_o religion_n well_o he_o may_v change_v it_o
