of_o what_o he_o be_v oblige_v to_o know_v to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o four_o principal_a mystery_n without_o the_o express_a belief_n whereof_o we_o can_v be_v save_v viz._n the_o unity_n of_o one_o god_n the_o trinity_n of_o person_n the_o incarnation_n of_o the_o second_o person_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o mankind_n and_o life_n everlasting_a to_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o apostle_n

the_o sacrament_n and_o particular_o of_o those_o which_o one_o either_o have_v or_o aught_o to_o receive_v not_o to_o know_v the_o comandment_n of_o god_n and_o the_o church_n all_o these_o

as_o catechism_n sermon_n read_v and_o the_o like_a 2._o the_o second_o sin_n against_o faith_n be_v a_o doubt_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o any_o of_o the_o point_n of_o faith._n it_o happen_v sometime_o against_o our_o will_n and_o then_o it_o be_v either_o none_o or_o at_o least_o not_o a_o mortal_a sin_n but_o perhaps_o some_o venial_a negligence_n but_o if_o it_o be_v voluntary_a it_o be_v a_o

and_o such_o a_o belief_n be_v always_o a_o mortal_a sin_n and_o if_o one_o maintain_v it_o obstinate_o without_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o church_n it_o be_v heresy_n whereof_o we_o be_v go_v

impiety_n deny_v all_o and_o believe_v nothing_o you_o ought_v theotime_o to_o examine_v yourself_o very_o strict_o whether_o you_o have_v fall_v into_o any_o of_o these_o sin_n and_o if_o you_o

to_o yourself_o and_o put_v you_o in_o the_o right_a way_n 6._o the_o six_o sin_n against_o faith_n be_v to_o favour_v heretic_n or_o impious_a man_n as_o in_o support_v and_o approve_v what_o they_o
