the_o four_o precept_n you_o shall_v behold_v it_o quite_o deplumed_a and_o strip_v of_o all_o legal_a observance_n for_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v all_o urge_v as_o ceremonial_a and_o several_a of_o the_o jew_n touch_v the_o sabbath_n be_v all_o every_o one_o postscript_n and_o by-law_n not_o one_o emergent_a from_o the_o four_o precept_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n betwixt_o god_n and_o his_o

to_o the_o hole_n church_n yet_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o book_n be_v especial_o pen_v for_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o a_o

the_o one_o be_v moral_a of_o the_o other_o ceremonial_a decalogi_fw-la and_o therefore_o when_o aquinas_n have_v frame_v this_o question_n whether_o the_o commandment_n concerning_o sanctify_v the_o
