we_o believe_v the_o contrary_a for_o we_o do_v hold_v that_o priest_n ought_v to_o observe_v the_o vow_n that_o they_o have_v make_v to_o obey_v god_n and_o we_o complain_v that_o they_o have_v vow_v obedience_n to_o god_n do_v obey_v the_o pope_n more_o than_o god_n we_o also_o hold_v that_o priest_n ought_v to_o keep_v chastity_n but_o if_o a_o priest_n burn_v with_o incontinency_n have_v make_v a_o vow_n that_o he_o will_v never_o marry_v such_o a_o vow_n as_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o vow_n of_o chastity_n and_o to_o the_o vow_n of_o obey_v god_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v keep_v the_o
