that_o god_n will_v raise_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o dead_a in_o their_o body_n unto_o bliss_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n you_o see_v then_o that_o our_o question_n be_v not_o whether_o the_o

begin_v to_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a be_v no_o proof_n that_o they_o be_v not_o of_o our_o church_n or_o religion_n or_o that_o therefore_o we_o want_v succession_n it_o be_v not_o a_o pray_v to_o

that_o as_o pegna_fw-la stapleton_n and_o other_o confess_v the_o father_n greek_n and_o latin_a before_o mention_v do_v believe_v that_o man_n have_v not_o their_o perfect_a joy_n till_o the_o
