though_o he_o be_v none_o heretic_n in_o dedeâ—_n so_o may_v it_o happen_v a_o man_n sometime_o to_o be_v trouble_v upon_o suspycyon_n of_o felâ—nye_n though_o he_o be_v no_o fellow_n in_o deed_n

fawte_a that_o by_o the_o law_n they_o be_v bind_v to_o abjure_v than_o be_v it_o good_a reason_n that_o they_o lie_v long_o in_o deed_n and_o so_o lie_v there_o as_o reason_n be_v sometime_o some_o for_o felonye_n to_o repry_v upon_o causy_n from_o one_o sessyon_n to_o another_o and_o sometime_o keep_v you_o see_v well_o all_o the_o whole_a year_n and_o more_o and_o that_o sometime_o such_o as_o

therefore_o where_o as_o this_o man_n say_v that_o they_o be_v in_o worse_a case_n that_o bear_v a_o fagotte_v very_a troth_n it_o be_v somewhat_o and_o so_o be_v it_o reason_n they_o be_v for_o
