after_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v no_o time_n wherein_o there_o be_v not_o division_n in_o the_o church_n for_o even_o in_o those_o good_a day_n of_o the_o apostle_n there_o go_v

it_o to_o pass_v that_o in_o after_o age_n she_o become_v so_o obscure_a and_o as_o it_o be_v invisible_a he_o reply_v by_o division_n but_o if_o in_o both_o state_n of_o the_o church_n there_o be_v
