our_o good_a nature_a author_n be_v of_o another_o opinion_n if_o he_o please_v but_o his_o reason_n for_o the_o contrary_n be_v none_o for_o it_o be_v well_o know_v st._n stephen_n at_o his_o

curse_n to_o the_o witness_n if_o the_o deposition_n against_o they_o be_v as_o false_a as_o it_o be_v evident_a some_o of_o what_o they_o have_v depose_v to_o king_n and_o council_n have_v be_v as_o i_o can_v instance_n in_o the_o case_n of_o don_n john_n and_o divers_a other_o matter_n if_o i_o be_v mind_v to_o disparage_v the_o king_n witness_n as_o they_o call_v they_o but_o this_o i_o can_v

desire_v but_o any_o reasonable_a man_n to_o consider_v the_o absurdity_n of_o their_o argue_n who_o pretend_v that_o not_o only_o these_o last_o five_o but_o the_o eight_o other_o condemn_v by_o
