to_o itself_o and_o each_o part_n heretical_a and_o schismatical_a to_o the_o other_o what_o direction_n can_v i_o then_o a_o ignorant_a man_n have_v find_v from_o that_o text_n of_o scripture_n

this_o their_o privilege_n of_o infallibility_n but_o rather_o on_o the_o contrary_a put_v they_o in_o fear_n in_o the_o 11_o the_o chapter_n that_o they_o as_o well_o as_o the_o jew_n be_v in_o

5_o that_o so_o great_a a_o part_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n shall_v be_v employ_v about_o antichrist_n and_o so_o little_a and_o indeed_o none_o about_o the_o vicar_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o

that_o s._n peter_n be_v the_o man_n 10_o that_o s._n paul_n shall_v say_v that_o he_o be_v nothing_o inferior_a to_o the_o very_a chief_a of_o the_o apostle_n 11_o that_o the_o catechumeni_fw-la or_o

necessity_n of_o conformity_n in_o all_o thing_n but_o only_o with_o the_o particular_a tradition_n of_o the_o western_a church_n in_o that_o point_n 15_o that_o irenaeus_n and_o many_o other_o
