this_o you_o will_v seem_v to_o answer_v in_o your_o say_a book_n say_v that_o henry_n the_o seven_o notwithstanding_o his_o attainder_n come_v to_o the_o crown_n as_o cast_v upon_o he_o by_o the_o

therefore_o in_o confess_v henry_n the_o seven_o to_o be_v a_o lawful_a king_n and_o that_o the_o crown_n be_v lawful_o cast_v upon_o he_o you_o confess_v direct_o thereby_o that_o before_o he_o be_v
