wherefore_o to_o salve_v all_o some_o pretty_a shift_n or_o colour_n must_v be_v devise_v &_o those_o term_n must_v be_v understand_v as_o st_n paul_n mean_v when_o he_o say_v christ_n be_v the_o

neither_o in_o the_o father_n do_v they_o exclude_v the_o body_n or_o blood_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o sacrament_n and_o do_v they_o not_o indeed_o why_o then_o when_o cyprian_n ere_o while_n say_v
