and_o interpretation_n therefore_o be_v they_o most_o foolish_a who_o think_v that_o heretic_n can_v be_v over_o come_v by_o the_o scripture_n only_o but_o that_o rather_o they_o be_v to_o be_v

but_o now_o neither_o i_o ought_v to_o allege_v the_o council_n of_o nice_a neither_o thou_o the_o council_n of_o ariminun_n as_o thereby_o to_o obtain_v the_o victory_n and_o neither_o i_o nor_o

be_v that_o the_o detestable_a heresy_n of_o arrius_n can_v be_v confute_v by_o the_o scripture_n and_o not_o by_o counsel_n but_o now_o at_o this_o day_n we_o have_v the_o self_n same_o scripture_n what_o shall_v set_v therefore_o but_o that_o we_o may_v with_o the_o scripture_n strong_o convince_v all_o error_n and_o heresy_n whatsoever_o at_o what_o soever_o time_n they_o spring_v up_o for_o the_o apostle_n have_v say_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v mere_a for_o confutation_n furthermore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n corrupt_v in_o the_o church_n as_o many_o time_n the_o most_o
