have_v no_o quarrel_n against_o the_o infallibility_n of_o the_o universal_a church_n he_o will_v admit_v tradition_n to_o be_v the_o best_a interpreter_n of_o scripture_n only_o his_o controversiehumour_n will_v spend_v itself_o against_o the_o roman_a church_n pretention_n to_o the_o title_n of_o catholic_n and_o will_v maintain_v that_o the_o english_a state_n and_o clergy_n have_v authority_n enough_o to_o reform_v themselves_o without_o consult_v the_o roman_a or_o any_o other_o church_n indeed_o if_o the_o eastern_a church_n have_v still_o be_v in_o union_n with_o
