which_o i_o may_v be_v well_o excuse_v from_o the_o trouble_n to_o we_o both_o of_o allege_v example_n since_o genebrard_n and_o pamelius_n think_v it_o their_o best_a course_n to_o purge_v the_o

i_o must_v needs_o say_v that_o pamelius_n his_o manner_n appear_v to_o be_v very_o extravagant_a for_o as_o to_o some_o poisonous_a doctrine_n of_o tertullian_n a_o montanist_n he_o right_o apply_v

prescribe_v a_o antitidote_n out_o of_o tertullian_n a_o heretic_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o eight_o of_o his_o paradox_n where_o he_o confute_v a_o error_n in_o his_o apologetique_n and_o

a_o montanist_n i_o may_v well_o help_v my_o cause_n the_o best_a i_o can_v by_o this_o unsettledness_n of_o the_o father_n since_o the_o noble_a pillar_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n cardinal_n
