be_v plain_a from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v in_o the_o forego_n reflection_n that_o disbelieve_a transubstantiation_n they_o must_v also_o have_v look_v upon_o all_o the_o other_o consequence_n of_o it_o viz._n the_o adoration_n of_o the_o host_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n etc._n etc._n as_o erroneous_a too_o now_o though_o it_o be_v not_o yet_o agree_v among_o they_o nor_o ever_o likely_a to_o be_v where_o the_o suppose_a infallibility_n of_o their_o church_n be_v seat_v yet_o since_o all_o manner_n of_o authority_n have_v conspire_v to_o establish_v these_o thing_n pope_n have_v decree_v they_o council_n define_v they_o and_o both_o pope_n and_o council_n anathematise_v all_o those_o that_o shall_v presume_v to_o doubt_v of_o they_o it_o be_v evident_a either_o these_o
