majorem_fw-la dei_fw-la gloriam_fw-la be_v we_o the_o good_a old_a cause_n be_v you_o pray_v what_o can_v be_v mean_v by_o good_a old_a cause_n but_o god_n good_a cause_n and_o what_o difference_n

inter_fw-la nos_fw-la we_o hold_v that_o in_o some_o case_n a_o king_n may_v forfeit_v his_o crown_n sometime_o to_o the_o pope_n when_o he_o give_v we_o good_a pension_n for_o teach_v that_o
