this_o duty_n be_v neglect_v be_v as_o essential_a a_o part_n of_o his_o religion_n as_o general_a council_n can_v make_v it_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o injury_n to_o his_o charity_n and_o piety_n to_o suspect_v he_o will_v not_o use_v his_o power_n so_o as_o become_v a_o zealous_a and_o submissive_a son_n of_o the_o church_n and_o what_o can_v be_v a_o great_a brand_n to_o the_o sincerity_n
