trust_v and_o always_o treat_v with_o the_o cardinal_n who_o be_v adherent_n to_o their_o master_n to_o discover_v the_o counsel_n by_o their_o mean_n but_o indeed_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o

that_o most_o pope_n put_v little_a trust_n in_o the_o cardinal_n when_o any_o matter_n relate_v to_o their_o own_o house_n be_v in_o agitation_n but_o they_o do_v all_o motu_fw-la proprio_fw-la for_o
