this_o manner_n the_o nestorian_n justify_v to_o paul_n v._o the_o belief_n of_o their_o church_n and_o that_o justification_n or_o reconciliation_n be_v not_o the_o work_n of_o one_o man_n but_o of_o

find_v in_o the_o act_n of_o council_n i_o shall_v only_o observe_v that_o from_o the_o same_o act_v some_o may_v infer_v that_o nestorianism_n be_v only_o a_o heresy_n in_o name_n and_o that_o if_o nestorius_n and_o st._n cyrill_n have_v understand_v one_o another_o they_o may_v have_v reconcile_v their_o opinion_n and_o thereby_o hinder_v a_o great_a scandal_n in_o the_o church_n but_o the_o greek_n have_v be_v always_o great_a disputant_n and_o therefore_o we_o find_v that_o most_o of_o the_o first_o heresy_n have_v their_o original_a among_o they_o and_o that_o most_o common_o their_o

heresy_n in_o they_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o that_o nestorius_n have_v always_o acknowledge_v two_o nature_n in_o christ_n which_o unite_v together_o make_v but_o one_o compositum_fw-la and_o that_o
