therefore_o the_o bishop_n contribute_v nothing_o to_o her_o change_n so_o the_o mitre_n be_v safe_a in_o its_o reputation_n no_o matter_n what_o become_v of_o the_o ducal_z coronet_n now_o i_o can_v be_v very_o well_o content_a that_o the_o bishop_n shall_v have_v no_o part_n in_o the_o honour_n of_o her_o conversion_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o he_o desire_v it_o not_o and_o why_o shall_v
