all_o this_o be_v very_o clear_a for_o we_o know_v that_o a_o man_n who_o sin_n mortal_o may_v have_v the_o mortality_n of_o that_o sin_n forgive_v he_o and_o consequent_o be_v free_v from_o the_o

in_o the_o next_o as_o for_o example_n we_o see_v a_o king_n do_v often_o pardon_v a_o offender_n his_o life_n which_o he_o have_v forfeit_v to_o the_o law_n and_o deserve_v to_o loose_v and_o yet_o

i_o have_v something_o else_o to_o say_v to_o this_o point_n so_o must_v not_o insist_v too_o long_o in_o that_o particular_a of_o it_o we_o know_v again_o that_o a_o righteous_a man_n may_v sometime_o happen_v to_o die_v with_o a_o great_a many_o venial_a sin_n about_o he_o especial_o if_o he_o be_v prevent_v with_o any_o sudden_a death_n so_o can_v possible_o have_v time_n enough_o to_o

the_o undeniable_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n in_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a be_v a_o most_o invincible_a argument_n for_o purgatory_n and_o no_o man_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o custom_n be_v
