of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n 2._o as_o it_o be_v general_o understand_v to_o that_o end_n he_o may_v sell_v they_o again_o and_o its_o likely_a to_o be_v true_a for_o it_o will_v have_v get_v he_o

the_o spirit_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o think_v quick_o to_o enrich_v himself_o so_o then_o here_o be_v simon_n sin_n he_o will_v have_v buy_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o that_o end_n he_o may_v have_v sell_v they_o that_o so_o he_o may_v enrich_v himself_o by_o it_o see_v then_o how_o the_o priest_n of_o our_o time_n run_v parallel_v with_o he_o i_o argue_v it_o thus_o those_o who_o buy_v their_o gift_n of_o purpose_n to_o sell_v they_o be_v guilty_a of_o simon_n the_o sorcerer_n sin_n but_o the_o priest_n of_o england_n buy_v their_o gift_n of_o purpose_n to_o sell_v
