as_o you_o say_v a_o protestant_n cease_v to_o be_v a_o protestant_n may_v name_v to_o he_o the_o roman_a so_o i_o say_v a_o protestant_n cease_v to_o be_v a_o protestant_n may_v name_v to_o you_o the_o grecian_a if_o you_o say_v a_o protestant_n remain_v a_o protestant_n can_v name_v no_o other_o but_o the_o roman_a for_o the_o catholic_n i_o may_v very_o ridiculous_o i_o confess_v but_o yet_o as_o true_o say_v he_o can_v name_v no_o other_o but_o the_o grecian_a if_o you_o say_v he_o can_v name_v the_o greek_a church_n neither_o remain_v a_o protestant_n i_o say_v likewise_o neither_o
