it_o do_v do_v according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o our_o church_n or_o land_n wherein_o i_o be_o not_o so_o well-skilled_a as_o to_o speak_v sure_o in_o the_o first_o regard_n to_o wit_n of_o what_o

it_o be_v substantial_o satisfactory_a and_o i_o suspect_v also_o obligatory_a for_o our_o yield_n to_o the_o same_o and_o thus_o do_v i_o avoid_v both_o the_o sin_n on_o one_o hand_n of_o disow_v
